Business 2.0 Names Nicholas Ricci to Publisher Post
Posted on January 19, 1999
Nicholas Ricci officially joins Business 2.0 as Publisher, succeeding Rick Espinoza who was promoted to Vice President of Business Development for Imagine's Business and Computing Division. Ricci leaves his post as Director of Corporate Sales for Times Mirror magazines.
"Nick's a very well respected figure in the advertising sales and publishing communities. We could always count on his creativity and superior service. He's also a great guy to work with -- trustworthy and always looking out for our Client's best interests," said Ronnie Beason, Senior Partner, Media Director at J. Walter Thompson/West.
"In looking to fill this role, we felt we needed a hands-on publisher who would lead from the front, out in the trenches with the team. Nick is that sort of leader: Inspirational, no-nonsense, and battle-tested," said Mark Gross, President of Imagine's Business and Computing Division.
Ricci will be based in Imagine's New York office and will spend his first 100 days traveling the country to develop strategic solutions and alliances with Clients and prospects.
