About Peter Hargitay
Peter Hargitay has put together a successful career as a consultant specializing in crisis communication and management, government relations and lobbying. Hargitay's understanding of how the international media works, his impressive networking skills and the number and quality of contacts that he has cultivated through his 35 years in the field have helped him achieve success.
After the native of Hungary started his career with one of Switzerland's leading firms, Hargitay founded the Consulting Group Europe in 1980. He built that company into a 15-office, 13-country business that specialized in cases involving high-profile companies or individuals who needed help ensuring that their reputations remained solid.
After he sold Consulting Group Europe and spent 10 years in Jamaica to focus on his family and producing documentaries, Hargitay re-entered the consulting field in 2002 when he formed ECN Ltd. Since then, many of the world's most prominent individuals have come to him for advice when they have found themselves unexpectedly thrust into the media spotlight.
From then until 2007, Hargitay also acted as a special adviser to FIFA's president, Sepp Blatter, and helped Blatter and the organization improve their public perceptions. ECN has worked closely with the Premier League, Chelsea Football Club and Formula One as well.
Peter Hargitay was one of the executive producers of "Goal!" and "Goal! III: Taking on the World," two-thirds of the "Goal!" trilogy. Those movies were released in 2005 and 2007, respectively, and were produced with the full co-operation of FIFA.
Hargitay has also served as a lecturer at the Universities of Neuchatel, Milan and Leicester and at Bocconi and De Montfort Universities.
