                                 Joint Venture



SPG Media Group plc ("SPG") announces that it has entered into a 50:50 joint
venture with Electronic Media Limited ("emedia") to launch an international 
'requested' e-bulletin service to SPG Media's international executive customers.



The joint venture will focus on specific vertical markets where SPG has a strong
presence, market expertise and established key decision maker relationships.
The business will be launched on Monday 4th January 2005 initially launching
services to the Pharmaceutical, Defence and Oil & Gas industries with plans for
expansion into Construction, Packaging and Transport, all markets where SPG has
established products or services.



Steve Nicholson, SPG Chairman, commented; "We have been working with the emedia
team for approaching six months and feel the combination of their commercial
expertise and proven technology coupled to our extensive senior executive
customer base and data assets presents an exciting opportunity for both
companies".



"The Internet is an increasingly important executive business tool and
electronic bulletins, that executives have requested, providing precise and
relevant information is clearly a compelling proposition".



Emedia, formed in 1999, is a privately owned UK business with a successful
background in publishing e-bulletins to UK companies.





SPG Media is an LSE listed business-to-business media company with International
Publishing, Internet, Conference and Executive Forum businesses based out of
