(SMPL), the flagship of the Spearhead Group started its ambitious journey into the Media world in 2013 from Mangalore &#8211; Karnataka, India, with the launch of two online news portals www.newskannada.com and www.newskarnataka.com.

Towards the end of 2015, as the world drifted towards digitalization, the Spearhead Group went against the grain. It launched Karnataka&#8217;s only English monthly print magazine, Karnataka Today, stretching the umbilical cord in the interests of Kannadigas around the world.<\/p>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading190_87b027-5f, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading190_87b027-5f[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading190_87b027-5f\"]{font-style:normal;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading190_87b027-5f mark, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading190_87b027-5f[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading190_87b027-5f\"] mark{font-style:normal;color:#f76a0c;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;}<\/style>\n<p class=\"kt-adv-heading190_87b027-5f wp-block-kadence-advancedheading\" data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading190_87b027-5f\">Today, all three media products of the Spearhead Group have hit their benchmark milestones and are going from strength to strength.
