Fortune magazine has expanded its coverage to the Middle East with the launch of a weekly newsletter covering investment trends and business opportunities across the GCC region.
Published every Tuesday, Gulf Brief focuses on innovation and dealmaking in the Gulf, and its increasing role as a connector between the East and West.
Editor-in-Chief, Alyson Shontell, said: “For almost 100 years, Fortune has provided the world’s most successful executives and companies with the intelligence they need to lead. Today, we are expanding our award-winning business coverage to one of the most vital and important regions in the world - the Middle East.”
The newsletter is written by London-based Melissa Hancock, who has specialised in covering the region for 20 years and previously worked for publications including Arabian Gulf Business Insight, Middle East Economic Survey and MEED.
“Fortune Gulf Brief will deliver what global executives need: clear-eyed, authoritative intelligence on the deals, decisions, policies, and power shifts shaping one of the world’s most consequential regions,” Shontell added.
