из-за него проектом заинтересовались

Russian to English Marketing Education / Pedagogy website promoting popular science events
Referring to the website's project for inviting guest lecturers:

Особую популярность стал набирать раздел «Наука» - именно из-за него проектом заинтересовались на радио и телевидении.

I can't figure out who is interested in whom. Is it that the "Science" column on the site is drawing interest in the project from radio and TV stations?

Thanks in advance.

(Yes) ... was what opened the door to ... coverage of the project

Especially the Science topic-area quickly gained popularity and was what opened the door to radio and TV coverage of the project [as a whole].

The antecedent of "его" is раздел.

Maybe the context dictates "column," but "topic-area" would be broader, if you're talking about a guest speaker program.
