Fortune announced Wednesday an expansion in Europe led by former Forbes Europe editor Alex Wood Morton, who becomes executive editor.
Wood Morton will lead editorial across print, digital and live events. Previously, he founded The Memo, a future trends magazine that he sold to Forbes in 2018.
Fortune’s print magazine will now include more European features, new lists and exclusive cover stories. Distribution will be increased across key markets such as London, Paris, Zurich and Milan.
“Until now, the UK and Europe have lacked an editorial champion for big business,” said Wood Morton in a statement. “Fortune believes in business, holds those at the top to account, and, most importantly, celebrates success.”
Grethe Schepers joins Fortune as list director for Europe. She will lead the expansion of Fortune’s lists to Europe, while developing the brand’s European and global audiences. Schepers previously served as director of research for Fidelity International in London.
Peter Vanham, based in Geneva and the author of Fortune’s “CEO Weekly Europe” newsletter, joined Fortune in August 2022 from the World Economic Forum. He will join Fortune Europe as editorial director of leadership, overseeing CEO and leadership coverage, and developing an exclusive community of business leaders in Europe.
