New Business Insider editor in chief Jamie Heller sent out the following to subscribers:

Hi Insider,

Today concludes my first week as Editor in Chief of Business Insider! I have long admired the hustle culture, smart instincts, and great ambitions of this publication.

At Business Insider, we are deepening and strengthening our focus on business, technology, and innovation — for your work and your life.

This week we covered the devastating impact of Hurricane Helene, including pieces on Asheville’s breweries and a mother’s struggle to connect with her daughter for days. We looked at what the port strike has meant for businesses and consumers. We chronicled escalations in the Middle East, and we explored the implications of these myriad disruptions for the economy and US election.

We delivered exclusive news on OpenAI’s historic funding round and analysis of the management mindset at investment firm Apollo. We provided our look at Wall Street’s rising stars and dug into the pain of higher credit card rates.

I would love to hear from you. What would you like to see more of at Business Insider? Less of? What can we do even better? Please email me at EIC@BusinessInsider.com.

Thank you for your thoughts and for the time you spend with us.
