New editor for magazines

International multi-media group INTRAS has welcomed back David Bell as editor of two of its flagship trade journals. David, who has a 25-year career in the UK’s weekly newspaper industry, will edit INTRAS’s EuroWire and Wire & Cable ASIA magazines. Returning after a two-year sabbatical in newspapers at what he describes as an “exciting time” for the magazines, he said: “The success of our publications is in always reporting the latest international wire and cable industry news, technological innovations, in-depth technical articles and trade show reports. “We provide all that industry professionals need to know and that is why we continue to be the market leaders. “However, the industry is constantly evolving and we’ve got even more fresh ideas for both magazines which we will be implementing during 2011. “I’m looking forward to getting out and meeting our valued clients around the world.” British-based INTRAS is a leading multi-media service organisation within the wire and cable and tube and pipe industries, with four international flagship trade journals. First launched 18 years ago, the wire magazines are produced in a range of languages with readers in 89 countries worldwide. Managing director Caroline Sullens said: “We’re delighted that David is heading our EuroWire and Wire & Cable ASIA magazines. “His grounding in journalism enables him to get right to the very heart of what is new and exciting about the industry and he has a proven record of providing essential trade information for our global market. “INTRAS provides its clients with unrivalled support in terms of corporate and promotional marketing, enhancing sales and promoting brand awareness through all the magazines – and at trade exhibitions across the world.
