Amazon.com Review:

Who Reads Condé Nast Portfolio?
Condé Nast Portfolio is a publication that sees business differently. We see it as powerful, gutsy, counterintuitive, and passionate. We see fascinating stories of ambition, invention, ego, drama, and conflict. We see how business echoes throughout society, in culture and in politics. We see an engaged audience of executives very much on the same page.

Condé Nast Portfolio’s readers are men and women with varied interests from all industries—opinionated, smart, top-level execs and entrepreneurs. Whether you’re an analyst, an investor, an executive, an entrepreneur, or just someone who enjoys a riveting read, you’re invited to discover Condé Nast Portfolio. Its pioneering journalism explores the business side of every story, from technology and politics to sports and the arts.

What You Can Expect in Each Issue:

  • Brief: National Magazine Award-winning section containing short analyses of current issues and events, accompanied by engaging graphics.
  • Columns: Insight from industry luminaries on topics currently unfolding—or just about to unfold—in the economy, media, Washington, the global environment, and on Wall Street.
  • Culture Inc.: Arts and entertainment section bringing you the business behind the book, movie, or architectural project.
  • How to Value It: Ever wonder how much cash you’d need to buy the Mets or Chanel? We’ll give you a figure and an explanation of the complex task of valuing megaconglomerates.
  • Interview: Exclusive Q&As with the most talked-about, inspiring, and controversial figures in business today
  • Exit Interview: One-on-one talks with top executives on their way out the door.
  • Features: In-depth features as multifaceted as the world of business today. From a portrait of the infamous media mogul Barry Diller to a look at the brain-drug business or the financial structure of a polygamous colony, Condé Nast Portfolio brings the passionate research, strong voices, and intense imagery only a monthly publication can provide, all from an award-winning writing and editorial team. Condé Nast Portfolio’s investigative reporters dig deeper to find out what’s working; what’s not working; what’s coming up next in finance, technology, media, politics, and the economy; and much more. With our provocative reporting and vibrant design, we’ll take you behind the scenes with the industry players, both the winners and the losers.

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Who is the audience for this?
When I placed my order for a subscription to this magazine, I (mistakenly) was under the impression that it was an investing publication--go figure with the word 'portfolio' in its name. Wrong! This magazine is more about spending your fortune than it is about amassing one. I don't know about you, but I really have no problem deciding how to spend my money. Very disappointing. Maybe it is supposed to be a vanity magazine for the well-heeled. I consider it a waste of time and money. Thank goodness ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Refreshingly different
After cancelling my Forbes subscription (mostly due to the fact that I got utterly tired of their absurd right-wing slant), I am really glad I found this diamond in the rough. Yes, they are a young magazine with a few things that lack a bit of polish, but their mix of articles, features, and insights are much more balanced than your typical business magazine and make for a great read every time.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - What's this magazine about?
I subscribed thinking this magazine was about investing. Perhaps the title "Portfolio" deceived me? I've received 3 issues and it's safe to say that this magazine is terrible. In each issue there might be one article that I find interesting the rest are poorly written and there is little in the way of a common theme.

Oh hold on..."Portfolio" might refer to the magazine as a collection of diverse articles. Yes, yes that must be it.

I subscribe to other Conde Naste magazines ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Modern Delight
In an era where magazine writing has become as dumbed down as the general media Portfolio shows that the written word is far from dead.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Complex Topics, Easy Reading
I ordered this magazine on a whim with some airline miles that were about to expire. I didn't expect much, so I was pleasantly surprised by the quality. I look forward to receiving each issue- the articles tackle complex issues, but are easy to read. The articles are original, interesting, and insightful. I subscribe to several business magazines, and this is the only one that I consistently read cover to cover. I'm here to order a gift subscription.
