Content discovery platform Outbrain continues to expand its publisher network across all major verticals in India, even as it further extends the content marketing opportunity for brands in this region. Outbrain's growing network combines both local publishers and global sites such as CNN and recent wins like Time Inc., ESPN and Mashable.

Since the beginning of 2015, Outbrain has been developing its publisher network in India. Joining its list of premium publications in India and around the globe are leading titles across all major verticals, including news, lifestyle, finance and youth.

India continues to be one of the company's fastest growing markets and Outbrain already counts The Times of India, The Hindu and ESPNcricinfo among its network of premium publications.

Publishers that have recently joined the Outbrain network include, but are not limited to, Indian Express, ABP Live, Financial Express, MTV India (Viacom), ScoopWhoop, Sanjeev Kapoor, StoryPick, MissMalini, and fossBytes. This news comes even as Outbrain announces the renewal of its partnership with Network18.
