Barron’s technology columnist Eric Savitz is departing the organization.
In his most-recent tenure, Savitz has been with Barron’s for five years.
He has a long history in tech: He joined Barron’s Group in 2019 from Roku, where he was senior director for corporate communications and previously was a partner at Brunswick Group.
This is his third stint at Barron’s. His first two spanned 19 years, including nine years as West Coast Editor, blogger and columnist. He created Barron’s Tech Trader Daily, which was the magazine’s first blog, and its first print technology investing column.
Eric also wrote a tech investing column for Smart Money, was San Francisco bureau chief for Forbes and served as executive editor of The Industry Standard. He started his career at Dow Jones Newswires.
