After years of reporting on them, I am pleased to announce that we are finally participating in one.
A spinoff.
Beginning this week, we are opening a three-person editorial office in Woodland Hills that will be responsible for writing and editing our sister publication, the San Fernando Valley Business Journal.
As many of you know, we launched the Valley Business Journal as a monthly in July 1996. The response has been so encouraging that we are increasing the paper’s frequency to every other week and establishing a bigger Valley presence.
Overseeing our group will be Shelly Garcia, who headed Adweek magazine’s L.A. bureau for many years. Shelly will be working with Wade Daniels, who has been a reporter for the Los Angeles Business Journal over the past year, and Jessica Dreben, who comes to us from Copley News Service.
It’s a strong group and points up our commitment to delivering a solid package of news for the Valley business community. Our first issue in the new format is March 23.
