Hinge Inquirer Publications is a special partnership between Hinge Media Incorporated, a startup magazine company barely three years old and the Philippine Daily Inquirer, the country’s most widely read and most influential newspaper, to create the magazine unit of the Inquirer Group. HIP seeks to be the most influential niche magazine publishing company within the next five years and address markets ignored or neglected by the bigger players, and to do this with creative, credible, and passionate people at the helm of each title. HIP aims to prove that success in this industry can be done honestly and with integrity.
WHO IS HIP?
HIP is headed by Chairperson Sandy Prieto-Romualdez and President Poch Bermudez , who is also Editorial Director. The editorial and creative staff of HIP magazines are headed by industry mavens and experts who are respected names in their fields, people who are so passionate about their work they would continued being in it even if their magazines were taken away from them. The entire company of 50 employees in their sprawling office in the Makati Business District is comprised of young and competent people, a far cry from the original three staffers in their cramped 25 square meter cubbyhole three years before.
