Barber writes, “Fortune tested the waters in the market before deciding the full-scale investment of building a dedicated team for Europe was worth it and determined there was enough evidence in the audience upticks from this region. In 2023, total page views by European readers on Fortune.com increased 44% year over year, while digital subscriptions increased by 30% year over year in the U.K., 25% in Germany and 25% in France, according to a company spokesperson. They declined to share the total readership or subscriber size. Last fall, the publication also launched the Fortune 500 Europe list and coming out in October will be the Fortune 100 Best Companies To Work For Europe list.
