MAIN FEATURE > NATO summit: make profit,
not war For the first time,
a NATO summit will be hosted by a post-communist country. This is
not only an honor with political and military significance, but also
a chance for Prague's business community to boost its global reputation.
INTERVIEW
> Michel Fleischmann:
Magnate of the airwaves A guy from Vršovice, a bohemian and a media
magnate. The president of Evropa 2 and Frekvence 1, with whom we
discussed family, life in France, and the world of media and politics,
is all of these.
CASE
STUDY > Developing a "green
field" chain The Mountfield story could be a Hollywood
film. Eleven years ago Ivan Drbohlav began selling lawn mowers from
his garage. His company's turnover this year is expected to exceed
two billion crowns.
TRAVEL
> The best of Helsinki The "Daughter of the Baltic" lies
on a peninsula, surrounded by an archipelago of 315 islands, perfectly
placed between Stockholm and Moscow. Historically both a strategic
military and trading port, this capital is now one of the most technologically
progressive in Europe.
FOCUS
> Mobile looks for
new angles As the wireless telecom market nears saturation,
mobile operators are struggling to divine what services will successfully
carry the industry into its next phase.
PERSPECTIVES
> Petr Fejk: Kamikaze
in the zoo Initially despised, the 38-year-old director
of the Prague Zoo has changed the facility beyond recognition in
five years. Following the floods, his former opponents have become
allies.
