Emap Hire Digital Director: Congratulations Stephen!
As part of its move to improve its digital offering, media company Emap Communications has created 3 new roles. The new digital directors will each head up one of Emap’s divisions (magazines, exhibitions & events). And on a personal note, I’m very glad to say that the first of these new appointments is Stephen Brooks, publisher & founder of mad.co.uk, who gave me my first job in online marketing, way back in 2000.
Stephen’s created a great product at mad.co.uk, which really shaped the market, in terms of the online reporting of new media & marketing, in the UK. I’m sure that Stephen will continue to do a great job, helping another traditional media company to meet the challenges that the digital era poses.
I’m sure that he won’t need it, but I’d just like to take this opportunity to wish Stephen all the best in his new role. You can read more about his move over at mad.co.uk (registration may be required).
