Like many other newspapers, The Economist is available in a digital version as well. Nevertheless, its print circulation remains impressively high considering that the current weekly circulation is about 1.5 million.
-
Royal Mail. Operating uninterruptedly since the early 16th century, the Royal Mail is one of the oldest postal service companies in the world. For most of the time since its creation back in 1516, it has been publicly owned. But in 2015 when the government sold the last 30% of shares, the Royal Mail was fully privatised.

World Economic Forum (WEF). The Swiss non-for-profit organisation actually functions as an international organisation which promotes public and private cooperation with an aim to make the world a better place. The WEF is best known for the annual Davos meetings in the Swiss Alps which are attended by political and economic elites from around the world. However, it also organises a range of other events and meetings although these are mostly regionally oriented.

Oxford University. One of the most respected universities in the world and the 2nd oldest surviving university in the world (the oldest in the English-speaking world) traces its roots back to 1096. It remains unknown when exactly it was founded but there is a common agreement that it existed at least since the late 11th century.

Cancer Research UK. Founded in 2002, the Cancer Research UK is, like its name suggests, a cancer research organisation which, however, is also heavily involved in raising public awareness. The organisation conducts awareness and fund raising campaigns but it also conducts research on both prevention and treatment. Over the years, it has evolved into the largest independent cancer research organisation in the world.
