We believe it's time for a new, global, European-based media brand. With a keen focus, strong reporting, sharp wit and more classic approach to design, we've dubbed our venture Monocle. At the core there's a monthly magazine delivering the most original coverage in global affairs, business, culture and design. Focused on informing and entertaining an international audience of disillusioned readers, listeners and viewers, it is our intention to create a community of the most interested and interesting people in the world. Edited out of London, Monocle is staffed by a team pulled from the world's leading news outlets, magazines and broadcasters. Versed in politics, popular culture, business affairs, media, architecture and design, the editorial team will cover the world from its London hub and dedicated bureaux in Tokyo, Zürich and New York.
