The business paper Les Echos was founded as a monthly newspaper in 1880 by French journalist Emile Servan-Schreiber and his brother Robert under the name Les Echos de l’Exportation. It did not become a daily paper until 1908, when it was also given its current name. Les Echos belongs to the luxury goods conglomerate LVMH. In 2007 it launched the world's first ever fee-based e-paper. With its new website Les Echos Start the paper has developed a special product aimed at 20 to 30-year olds.
