Julio Bruno is chief executive of Time Out Group. During his three years at the helm, he has overseen the brand’s transformation into a multi-platform media, entertainment, retail and e-commerce operation with a global audience of 217 million. He has also coordinated the expansion of the new Time Out Markets, which last year attracted 3.6 million visitors and is already helping to drive the company back to profitability with five more set to open over the next 12 months. In this in-depth interview, he discusses the 50-year heritage of the iconic Time Out brand, talks about taking the company public, and how his love for London inspired the post-Brexit ‘Dear World’ cover.
