RH Matin

What RH Matin does

RH Matin is a French B2B digital media platform serving Human Resources professionals in France. The platform publishes daily news, expert interviews, dossiers, videos, and webinars covering SIRH (HR information systems), recruitment, payroll, training/digital learning, and QVT (Quality of Life at Work). It also operates an annuaire (directory) of HR service providers spanning at least 71 pages across the major HR subcategories.

The product is editorial rather than technological: built on a digital content management platform that organizes articles by HR domain, hosts webinars and video content, and surfaces a searchable vendor directory. There is no disclosed proprietary software, no API or SDK, and no native mobile app. The platform maintains active social media presence on LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube, and distributes email newsletters to subscribed HR professionals.

RH Matin is privately held, legally registered in Paris (RCS 752 020 198) at 48 rue de la Bienfaisance, 75008 Paris, and is edited and published by News Tank RH, a French media group specializing in HR content. Marc Guiraud is the legal representative. The business model is advertising-based across three streams: sponsored content placements (e.g., Cegid webinars, Apogea video features), paid directory listings, and newsletter/email marketing. No public pricing exists; commercial arrangements are quote-based. The company operates with a 9-person team and is restricted to the French market.
