Advertise with Business Report
Our readers run, fund and regulate Kenyan business. They read us because we are independent — which is also why your message lands.
Who reads us
Business Report is read by executives, founders, fund managers, bankers, lawyers, regulators and the civil servants who write the rules they all work under. They come for reporting they cannot get elsewhere — on companies, markets, public money and the decisions that move them — and they read in the morning, when decisions get made.
We publish a small number of stories a day and one email each weekday. That scarcity is deliberate. It means your message sits next to journalism people chose to read, not in a feed they are scrolling past.
What we offer
Morning Brief sponsorship
Presenting sponsor of the daily email — a short message at the top and a logo in the footer. Exclusive by week; the most-read thing we publish.
Partner content
Long-form pieces written with you and for our audience, published under /partner and labelled “Partner content” at the head, in the card and in the feed. Editorial staff do not write it.
Section sponsorship
Presenting sponsor of a desk — Markets, Banking, Energy and so on — across the section front, its cards and its newsletter items.
Display
A small number of fixed, non-tracking placements on section fronts and inside articles. Standard IAB sizes, sold direct.
Events and briefings
Roundtables and closed-door briefings with our reporters and their sources. Sponsorship covers the room; the conversation stays independent.
The line we do not cross
Advertising and journalism are separate businesses here. Advertisers do not see stories before publication, do not influence what we cover or how, and cannot buy their way out of coverage. Partner content is labelled as such wherever it appears and is never written by editorial staff. Our editorial standards set this out in full, and they apply to every commercial arrangement we enter into.
We turn down work that would compromise that — and we would rather tell you so at the first conversation than after.
Rates and availability
We sell direct and price by placement, not by impression. Tell us what you want to achieve and when, and we will come back with what is available and what it costs. Rate card and audience figures are shared on request.
