About E!Sharp

'E!Sharp, a magazine on the European Union, was launched in December 2001...The aim of the magazine is to humanise the EU's activities and demystify its work...focus on the people who wield the real power in Europe make understanding how the EU works a pleasure, not a chore - hence the magazine's appeal to businessmen and policy-makers alike'.

'E!Sharp is now being widely read in Brussels and in national capitals around the EU, with subscribers ranging from EU ambassadors and policy-makers to chief executives of leading companies. Copies are also sent to top European Commission officials and MEPs every month'.

'E!Sharp explains how the process works in theory - and in practice. It sets the work of the Union's institutions in context, examining how the different players on the EU stage - from politicians and policy-makers to lobbyists and non-governmental organisations - interact and how decisions are made'.
