Computerweek Strategist appoints Kathy von Plato as Consulting Publisher

Computerweek Strategist has appointed Kathy von Plato as Consulting Publisher for the title with immediate effect.

Von Plato, whose previous experience includes editing and managing various titles in the IT industry, and marketing consultancy in the IT industry, comments, "As possibly the oldest dedicated title in the IT industry, Computerweek Strategist has a strong brand and heritage that it brings to its readership and advertisers. As with all brands of long-standing, this value needs to be re-explored and refreshed from time to time in order to ensure that we constantly deliver the maximum value to our IT management readers and our customers. These are critical facets of my new role."
