As the region’s leading media organization, the Times Union is deeply embedded in this community. Our commitment to reporting the news fairly and independently, sponsoring local events and supporting local businesses helps to strengthen our area and make it a better place for all to work and live.

Each year, we sponsor hundreds of non-profit organizations throughout the Capital District area. This helps the fund-raising and awareness efforts of local organizations engaged in arts and culture, health and human services, youth, environment, economic development and education.

In March of 2013 the Times Union made a major investment in the business that speaks of its confidence in the growth trend of our community. The installation of a new press in our Colonie headquarters has given the newspaper a fresh new look and established the Times Union as a commercial partner of other enterprises seeking high-quality printing. While other newspaper companies are curtailing service to a few days a week or stopping publication, the Times Union sees a bright future as our community’s key provider of news and information on multiple platforms, including print.

The Times Union is part of Hearst Corporation, one of the world’s leading media companies. In the Capital Region, our suite of products extends beyond the daily newspaper, to include  magazines, the region’s leading Web site, a mobile site and a tablet platform. Our digital media platforms, Search Engine Optimization and Search Engine Marketing help local businesses get found on the web. All this makes the Times Union a valuable resource for the growing and diverse needs of the Capital Region’s business community.
