About The Read-Out
The Read-Out delivers a structured transcript of the European Commission's daily midday press briefing, sent to your inbox within an hour of the briefing ending.
Every weekday at noon, the Commission's spokespeople take questions from the press on the full range of EU policy. It's one of the most information-dense briefings in Brussels — and one of the most time-consuming to follow live.
The Read-Out captures the audio, transcribes it, and structures it so you can read it in minutes rather than watch it for an hour.
