“Maius est illuminare quam lucere solum.”
“It is greater to illuminate than merely to shine.”
St. Thomas Aquinas
Great ideas often begin not in conference halls or institutions, but in conversation. In 2024, two brothers of Hungarian origin, Laszlo and Attila, sat down to reflect on a simple but serious question: what could they build together that might contribute, even in a modest way, to making sense of the world around them?
Both had accumulated experience and knowledge in their respective fields, yet they shared a growing sense that the modern information environment had become increasingly difficult to navigate. Events were reported endlessly, opinions multiplied without restraint, and clarity about what truly mattered often seemed to disappear beneath the noise.
From this conversation emerged the idea that would later become AnalogBrief: an effort to apply disciplined analysis, sound judgment, and intellectual independence to the understanding of contemporary events.
Laszlo Enyedi is an international relations expert whose professional path has taken him through several of the institutions in which European policy is debated, formed, and implemented. His work focuses on the interpretation of political and geopolitical developments, particularly those linking Europe, the United States, and the wider international order.
He first gained experience within the institutions of the European Union as an intern in the European Parliament in 2018, observing the workings of European legislative politics at close range. He later served in Brussels as a seconded national expert at the European Commission, where he further developed his understanding of the Union's administrative and policy-making structures.
Returning to Hungary, he worked within several government ministries as a policy officer, before continuing his analytical work in the Hungarian National Assembly, preparing international reports and analyses on developments in the United States and broader global affairs.
He currently works in Budapest, where he continues his research while benefiting from the mentorship of John O'Sullivan, former adviser to Margaret Thatcher and Commander of the Order of the British Empire.
László is also a 2025 alumnus of the International Visitor Leadership Program, among the United States’ most longstanding professional exchange initiatives.
Attila Enyedi is a self-taught web software engineer whose work centers on the design and development of modern digital platforms. Specializing in UX and web technologies, he has built a professional career developing web applications and content systems that combine technical reliability with clear and intuitive user interfaces.
Over the course of several years in the software industry, he has worked on a wide range of projects involving web platforms, internal content management systems, and large-scale digital services. His work has included the development of front-end architectures using contemporary technologies such as React, Angular, and TypeScript, as well as the integration of back-end systems that support complex digital environments. Throughout these projects he has maintained a particular interest in the relationship between technical systems and the experience of the user who ultimately relies on them.
Earlier in his professional life he also gained experience in project coordination and technical planning in the field of building systems and energy-efficient infrastructure. These experiences provided him with a practical understanding of how complex projects are organized and implemented in real-world conditions.
Attila studied psychology at Babes-Bolyai University in Romania. This background has informed his continuing interest in the interaction between human behavior and digital systems, and in the ways technology can be designed to serve human needs more effectively.
Alongside his professional work, he maintains a strong interest in emerging technologies and the evolving possibilities of artificial intelligence, frequently exploring new tools and ideas through independent technical projects.
Fluent in English, Romanian, and Hungarian, he brings to his work both technical discipline and a thoughtful curiosity about the systems that increasingly shape the modern world.
