Community

As a business, Trade Press delivers media products and services that matter for our clients and audiences. As a neighbor and contributor to our community, we value new ideas and practices that matter to those around us. Trade Press' social investments reflect a dedication to the community not only by senior management, but every single employee.

Volunteering is important business

An important employee benefit for the entire Trade Press staff is the volunteering program. Every year, employees are given eight hours of paid work leave to volunteer at a 501(c)3 organization of their choice.
