OutUK was formed in 1999 and launched in July 2000 to provide the UK gay community with an alternative to
existing gay information and entertainment websites, many of which are anglicised versions
of sites from other countries. With a passion to encourage quality writing, our aim is to provide stimulating
coverage of the issues that affect gay men in the UK and Europe, together with entertainment and advice from a
uniquely gay perspective.
THE COMPANYOutUK was the first of a series of websites origionally produced by Out Europe Ltd a consultancy company who specialised in the management of new media properties. The company was purchased in August 2004 by European new media company Out Europe BV based in the Netherlands. The website is now fully owned and operated from within The Netherlands, ahead of further expansion into Europe.Out Europe also provides consultancy and project management services for companies and individuals wishing to develop their presence on the internet or create new web properties. We have developed great expertise in producing websites for arts organisations and venues, as well as individual sites for performers and musicians.
