Captain Euro® was originally launched back in the 1990s to help launch the new Euro currency, and solve Europe’s lack of clear identity. It created instant public impact, appearing on the cover of the Wall Street Journal, Time magazine, The Times, BBC, The Sun, CNN and news channels around the world. He was a divisive and exciting figure. With the Euro’s successful launch and reception, Captain Euro had done his job!
AT LEAST, UNTIL NOW! Now, Captain Euro has returned to solve the EU’s identity crisis and tackle global issues from an entirely different angle. He’s back, and this time, it’s personal! Times have changed, and so has he.
With Captain Euro’s relaunch comes an entirely new approach and audience. The new Captain Euro uses the power of satire, humour, and intrigue to raise awareness of critical global issues.
He is also tasked with exposing and criticizing areas which lack effective global governance, or systems with excess bureaucracy; particularly in the context of contemporary national, European and global politics. These new stories include Captain Euro dealing with global issues and world leaders including Barack Obama, Angela Merkel, Matteo Renzi, new European Commission President Juncker, Vladimir Putin and David Cameron, among others. When world leaders want advise and wisdom about EU and global affairs, they come to Captain Euro. Who else!?
