Elektor and eeNews Europe Record Major Audience Surge in 2025

Elektor and eeNews Europe are ending 2025 on a high note, recording significant audience growth across our websites and YouTube channels. These results highlight the momentum behind our content strategy, the strength of our communities, and the expanding impact of our media and learning platforms.

Website Traffic Surges Across Brands

Traffic to Elektor’s multilingual magazine platforms (English, Dutch, French, Italian, and German) surged in 2025. Traffic to the Elektor Mag websites increased by 19.7% compared to 2024. This figure represents purely editorial site growth  — a strong signal that our electronics-focused articles, engineering tutorials, DIY projects, online courses, and technical insights are drawing in more readers than ever. And with the growth of Elektor Academy Pro solutions in 2025 (e.g., courses and online conferences), we are bringing valuable digital learning solutions to engineers and serious electronics enthusiasts interested in leveling up their technical skills.
 

On the industry news side of our business, the eeNews Europe website delivered a standout performance with 33% year-over-year traffic growth. The results demonstrate that our renewed editorial direction and audience engagement initiatives are successfully capturing the attention of Europe’s electronics engineering community. Engineers and electronics industry leaders turn to eeNews Europe each day for insightful business news, thoughtful opinion pieces from experts, in-depth interviews, product updates, and industry analysis. 

Video and YouTube Channels Accelerate Rapidly

Over the past two years, Elektor and eeNews have invested heavily in expanding our video and livestream presence — responding directly to the growing demand for deep technical insights, long-form conversations with leading engineers and innovators, and regular domain-focused webinars and livestream shows. This strategic focus on high-value, engineering-driven content has paid off: both of our YouTube channels have continued to grow month after month, building engaged audiences who rely on our platforms for expert knowledge and industry perspectives.

With regular shows (e.g., Elektor Engineering Insights and Elektor Lab Talk), video conferences (e.g., ), and webinars (ex), the Elektor TV YouTube channel has experienced remarkable expansion year-over-year:
 

• 116,000+ total subscribers
• 5.57 million views (+274%)
• 106,100 hours of watch time (+185%)
• 63,500 new subscribers (+157%)

This surge underscores the growing influence of Elektor TV as a global hub for electronics tutorials, product reviews, lab content, and engineering education.

And the Elektor Industry/eeNews channel recorded significant growth across all key metrics:
 

• 70,900+ total subscribers
• 1.62 million views (+85%)
• 28,400 hours of watch time (+61%)
• 50,300 new subscribers (+190%)

With an audience composed of industry professionals, executives, and advanced engineers, this channel’s expansion strengthens our position as a premier B2B media leader.
 

"This momentum is just the beginning — and we’re excited to build on it with new content formats, deeper industry collaborations, and even stronger engagement across our communities," noted C. J. Abate, Elektor’s Director of Content and Engineering. "From the surge in website traffic to the growth of video viewership across our channels, 2025 has shown us what’s possible. We’re ready to push even further, expanding our livestreams, elevating our technical storytelling, and strengthening the partnerships that fuel innovation. We're already planning our 2026 pipeline of online articles, electronics projects, engineering courses, digital conferences, webinars, and livestreams."

Elektor's Partners Benefit from Wide Exposure

Elektor's traffic growth in 2025 created tremendous value for the companies that partnered and collaborated with Elektor and eeNews Europe throughout the year, amplifying their visibility across our expanding web platforms and social media channels. Consider the following two examples.

A standout collaboration was our renewed partnership with STMicroelectronics for the STM32 Edge AI Contest, where engineers were challenged to push the limits of the STM32N6 Discovery Kit to solve real-world technical problems. The response from the community was outstanding — dozens of participants developed innovative projects ranging from computer vision applications to predictive maintenance and environmental monitoring solutions, supported by dedicated webinars and extensive online coverage. 

Building on the industry’s accelerating interest in embedded AI, we also welcomed Edge Impulse, a Qualcomm company, as our 2025 Guest Editor. Their involvement resulted in a fully guest-edited edition of Elektor Magazine, a digital Bonus Edition, a webinar, and additional expert-driven content that resonates strongly with our audience.

A Strong Foundation for 2026 

The results of our digital initiatives reflect the success of Elektor's editorial strategy, cross-channel promotion, and growing global brand visibility. With larger audiences across all platforms, Elektor and eeNews Europe are exceptionally well-positioned to deliver increased value for advertisers, sponsors, and partners throughout 2026 and beyond.
