INTRODUCING THE EUROSTAR INITIATIVE DMD IS DELIGHTED TO ANNOUNCE THE LAUNCH OF NEW OPPORTUNITIES FOR DIGITAL PUBLICATIONS, IN ASSOCIATION WITH EUROSTAR. In November 2015 Eurostar unveils its new fleet of state- of- the-art trains, featuring upgraded Infotainment systems designed to meet the needs of today s discerning and tech savvy traveller. Within this new enhanced customer experience passengers are offered a wide range of serverstreamed media, including movies, TV, games and digital press. Eurostar currently carries more passengers between London & Paris and London & Brussels per month than all airline services combined. A Eurostar train is nearly a quarter of a mile long, making it far longer than the Eiffel Tower is high. DMD has served Eurostar for many years as its sole newspaper and magazine provider, and Eurostar was the launch customer for our Digiredoo digital press service in its Business Premier lounges. Now as the appointed service provider for digital content on all Eurostar trains, DMD invites its publisher partners to get onboard and join us for the next exciting stage of the journey! Each Eurostar train costs a staggering 24 million. Service now includes direct trains to Disneyland Paris, Ski trains to the Alps and a new Lyon South of France route launched in Summer 2015.

Social Grade ABC1 Like travel, art & culture Happy to spend disposable income Enjoy life & seize the day HOW DO THEY CONSUME MEDIA AND INFORMATION? Generation Eurostar are internet fiends, the average adult spending over 2 hours on it each day. They love their mobile phone, spending 25 minutes a day on it on average. They are regular visitors to social platforms and spend 30 minutes a day on the sites, though they re not the ultimate obsessive type, it s just in their nature. They don t listen to any more radio than the average adult, and are slightly less likely to pick up a magazine. They d also rather get their news from the web than a traditional paper. GENERATION EUROSTAR S OUTLOOK ON LIFE I like to stand out in a crowd I like to go to trendy places to eat and drink I would be willing to pay to access content on newspaper websites I enjoy life and don t worry about the future I like to pursue a life of challenge, novelty and change I am prepared to pay more for good quality wine It s worth paying more for organic food I pay extra to personalise products to suit my taste and style
