Reby Media

What Reby Media does

Reby Media Ltd is a UK-based, privately held STEM audio production company founded in 2018 and registered in England, operating from Hemel Hempstead and Watford. It creates podcasts, magazines, and industry events serving primarily engineering, infrastructure, and brewing sector B2B clients, and offers bespoke podcast production, video, photography, and event management services to enterprise brands.

The company's core assets are a portfolio of branded media properties. Engineering Matters, launched in 2018, is a five-time Publisher Podcast Awards winner including Best Technology Podcast and won Best B2B Podcast from the Periodical Publishers Association in 2021. Planet Beyond is produced in partnership with geo-data company Fugro and covers topics from underground space to space exploration. How to Build is a deep-dive engineering series deconstructing complex infrastructure systems. Brewers Journal is the company's leading UK brewing industry magazine, podcast, and events brand. The Engineering Matters Awards are co-presented with the Institution of Mechanical Engineers and Engineers Without Borders UK, and HS2 is a branded-content client via the How to Build a Railway podcast. Additional products include video/photography services, written content, and events such as the Brewers Choice Awards, Brewers Congress, and Brewers Lectures.

Reby Media generates revenue through four primary streams: professional services for custom podcast and audio production, advertising and sponsorship packages across its owned podcasts and platforms, event management for industry awards and conferences, and print and website advertising through Brewers Journal. Its go-to-market is sales-led with an event-driven overlay: enterprise clients are acquired through direct website enquiries and B2B outreach, while industry events and awards ceremonies create networking and sponsorship pipelines. The company operates a small team of approximately seven known production, editorial, commercial, and data personnel, and serves enterprise clients such as Fugro, HS2, AtkinsRéalis, and IMechE across the UK and selected EMEA markets.
