Business Matters is a British monthly magazine, specializing in business news for the small and medium enterprises business owner. The magazine was founded in London by EMAP. Its first issue appeared in February 1987. Following the purchase of the established title by Clearsight Publishing in 2007 (now known as Capital Business Media), the size and the distribution of the title increased and an online version and accompanying website was launched. In 2008, its readership had increased to 147,000 per month.
A new issue is released on the first Friday of every month. The magazine usually also has separate supplements that focus on specific topics. The magazine is based in Canary Wharf, London Docklands.
In December 2009 entrepreneur and BBC TV Dragons' Den member Duncan Bannatyne and former Apprentice winner Michelle Dewberry joined the magazine as monthly columnists.
The magazine publishes interviews with leading business people and entrepreneurs such as Peter Jones, Theo Paphitis, James Caan and Michelle Mone. Business advice is provided by entrepreneurs, chairman and other business professionals.
The magazine had a policy of publishing only positive, educational and informative content, but from early 2008 and following the change of ownership, it has begun to campaign on issues relevant to owners of small and medium-sized businesses in the United Kingdom. It regularly joins organisations representing SME businesses in the UK in lobbying Government for change in the sector.
