History

Founded in 1998 as HBL Media, the company originally operated as a broadcast consultancy, video production and media training company. After early growth in the late nineties the company expanded into PR and magazine publishing, as well as developing the London Stock Exchange Media Centre.

In 2004, after attending annual meetings such as the TUC Annual Conference and various Local Government Association (LGA) conferences; HBL Media developed the concept of Conference TV. This was producing television programmes about the conferences they attended, and in 2005 expanded into the Local Government Channel.

Following this, Global Health tv was launched in 2006 and Education Now! in 2008.

In May 2008 representatives of WebsEdge attended the 25th Anniversary of the historic International AIDS Candlelight Memorial in Malawi.[2] They have worked closely alongside the Isibindi Project in South Africa’s Eastern Cape since; supporting the partnership between the local church and the National Association of Child Care Workers to create circles of care for children affected by HIV/AIDS and poverty.[3]
