Jon Westbrook

Co-Founder & COO
The Alliance

Jon Westbrook most enjoyed the years in a lengthy media career at Independent publishers. Running the commercials at both football magazine When Saturday Comes and technology news website The Register, Jon was part of organisations that challenged publishing norms from the establishment. The success and impact of these titles were felt deeply both in football and the technology industry.

“For what I’m interested in, independently published websites are the first I fire up in the morning. This is common for the audiences for all of the members of the Independent Publishers Alliance (over 1,000 sites and growing). We are so pleased that what was conceived as an idea over 5 years ago, has become an energetic and engaged community of leading UK independent content creators.”
