Jan

Jan is an independent journalist and regular contributor to the Czech Business Review, writing primarily at the intersection of technology, labour markets and EU regulation. His beat tends to follow where Czech business decisions meet outside pressure — European Commission rule-making, cross-border talent competition, and the compliance obligations that arrive from Brussels faster than most companies can prepare for them.

As an independent contributor rather than staff, Jan brings an outside-in perspective the Review values for stories that benefit from distance from any single institution's framing — regulatory stories in particular, where a self-interested source on any side of a debate is common and a contributor's independence is itself part of the story's credibility. He is known among CBR readers for pieces that move quickly on live developments (EU legislative timelines, fast-moving labour-market data) without sacrificing the sourcing discipline the Review expects of every byline, staff or contributor.

Jan writes for the Review alongside other freelance and contributor work across the Central European business press, and brings that broader regional vantage point to how he frames purely Czech stories — consistently asking not just what is happening in Czechia, but how it compares with or diverges from the rest of the CEE region.
