The New Statesman has launched an online business section which will feature as many as 30 stories a day on finance and economics news.
Areas covered will include automotive, banking and insurance, energy and clean technology, food and drink, healthcare and pharmaceuticals and technology.
Another recent addition to the website is the new rolling blog, The Staggers, which offers a mixture of news, opinion, and comment with regular guest posts from leading bloggers such as Will Straw of Left Foot Forward and Sunder Katwala of Next Left.
Editor Jason Cowley said:”These launches are part of a huge online expansion plan. Following the successful redesign of the magazine in September last year, we are now working to transform our online presence as we seek to become the essential hub for anyone interested in progressive politics and ideas. More launches will be announced over the next few months.”
The additions follow the launch of YourDemocracy by New Statesman, a searchable database with information on MPs, the Lords, political parties, and parliamentary debates from 1803 to the present day.
New Statesman i is part of the same publishing group as the Press Gazette.
