Tech mag T3 to make India debut in Oct

The world's largest gadget magazine - T3 - is being launched in India, with the first issue, the November edition, expected to hit the stands by late October this year. With the launch of the Indian edition, the monthly would be published simultaneously from 23 countries across the world, including UK, Australia, China, Singapore and Russia among others.

The magazine will be published in India by Mumbai-based Infomedia, under a licensing agreement with Future Publishing of UK, the publishers of the magazine. T3, which stands for Tomorrow's Technology Today, has over 500,000 copies in circulation across the world.

"The launching of the Indian edition is an important step for T3 as the country is an important and growing market for gadgets. We intend to create a new category in the country, which was never before addressed and provide information to readers, who are passionate about technology," T3 Editor James Beechinor Collins told Business Standard here today.

The magazine will be product-driven and will reveal the new trends in technology, profiles gadgets ranging from mobile phones to digital cameras and LCD monitors, lap-tops and about the latest gizmos or gadgets in the market.

The Indian edition will be launched with a print-run of 25,000-27,000 copies, which will be increased to around 40,000 per month in the next 12 months.
