About The European

The Voice of Global Business Leadership

The European is a quarterly business publication published by CP Media Global, based in London. For over 16 years, we have provided a platform for executive-level insight, expert commentary, and economic analysis to an international audience of decision-makers and investors.

Available in print and digital formats, The European is distributed worldwide and prominently featured at major international trade fairs, airport lounges, and across key business centres in Europe, the Middle East, Asia, North America, and Latin America. 

Our Editorial Focus

At the heart of The European is a commitment to objective reporting, strategic insight, and global perspective. We explore the forces shaping the future of business through in-depth features, exclusive interviews, and special reports — with particular emphasis on:

  • Banking & Finance
  • Foreign Direct Investment (FDI)
  • Sustainability & ESG
  • Energy
  • Technology & Innovation
  • Executive Education
  • Transport: Shipping & Aviation
  • Lifestyle & Business Travel

We believe great journalism should not only inform but also challenge assumptions, anticipate change, and connect ideas across borders.

What sets The European apart is the depth and diversity of its contributor network. We collaborate with a wide range of expert voices — from CEOs and economists to academics, policymakers, and entrepreneurs — each bringing real-world experience and strategic insight from across global markets.

Their analysis and commentary inform every section of the magazine, helping us to highlight emerging trends, explain complex developments, and provide context for the decisions shaping international business. Contributors are integral to our editorial process and central to the publication’s continued relevance and authority.

This collaborative model allows us to reflect the realities of a rapidly changing business environment — not from the sidelines, but from those directly engaged in shaping it.
