Politico is preparing to expand to Europe with the launch of Politico Europe. The site will use the similar tactic taken by Politico and Capital New York — a free site with subscription-only verticals that focus on one subject, like tech.
Politico Europe is a partnership between Politico and German media company Axel Springer. It will launch April 21.
“We are assembling a roster of some of the most talented reporters and editors on the continent – a mix of respected veterans and ascendant younger journalists – who are ready to help shake up a European media scene, which, in our judgment, is in need of something different,” stated a memo from Politico Europe executive editor Matt Kaminski, Politico editor-in-chief John Harris and Politico Europe managing director Shéhérazade Semsar-de Boisséson.
Below are some of the most notable hires:
- Ryan Heath joins as a reporter, responsible for penning a morning column much like Politico’s Playbook.
WORK SMARTER - LEARN, GROW AND BE INSPIRED.
