Publishing and events business Emap is understood to have lined up corporate adviser Hawkpoint to sell its trade magazines business, which includes industry-leading titles Nursing Times and Broadcast.

It is believed that the sale of Emap Inform is the favoured option to reinvigorate the business, as trade titles and their award ceremonies have suffered badly during the downturn.
