The EBA/ EMA – did Paris and Amsterdam win at the expense of future EU-27 unity?

The 3 conversations on digital and social communications in the Brussels bubble
November 3, 2017
In the Brussels bubble we've got a unique, vibrant conversation about digital and social communications.

My take on the most obvious three: The "public communication" conversation, driven by the EU institutions with their need to reach huge numbers across the continent, usually with a message about the benefits of the EU or something that helps engage citizens...

Choosing the Right Tool
October 26, 2017
In the modern world, we are surrounded by technology. Everything we do – be it work, play, or ‘nothing at all’ when scrolling through Twitter – creates data.

An FH Overview on the Future of EU Transport
October 20, 2017
