Contexte, which launched 12 years ago and covers French public policy news across eight verticals — powers (decision-makers and the legislature), energy, transport, environment, agriculture, health, tech and media — is launching an English version, reports Charlotte Tobitt of Press Gazette.
Tobitt writes, “Contexte is now rolling out an expansion into the EU market.
“Although it already had 18 journalists in Brussels, they were covering EU affairs with a view to how they would affect the French market specifically, and writing in French.
“From 13 May Contexte will start to also cover ‘what’s decided in Brussels that can have an impact on the whole European Union‘, publishing in English.
“The first vertical to launch will be energy, with the second, as yet-undecided, subject area to come in November and others to follow.”
