OLD Media Moves

Arizent, formerly Source Media, makes two editorial promotions

Penny Crosman

Arizent, formerly known as Source Media, announced two editorial promotions on Monday.

Penny Crosman has been promoted to executive editor of technology. In her new role, Crosman will define and lead American Banker’s technology coverage strategy, as well as assist and advise all Arizent titles in their coverage of how digital technologies are transforming the financial and professional services industries.

She is well known in the banking industry for her regular podcast series on American Banker and appearances in key industry events.

Suleman Din has been promoted to content lead for all Arizent Conferences. In this role, he will assist the company’s event programmers in creating agenda-setting programs and deliver world-class speakers. An important component of the company’s mission of advancing professional communities is to integrate its content strategy across editorial and live events.

The company hopes the move will result in enhanced online content for subscribers and a more critical presence of what the company describes as “live journalism” at its events. Din was technology editor of American Banker and Financial Planning.

“We’re thrilled to promote our talented staff to new roles and look forward to working with our new team members towards delivering on our mission,” said CEO Gemma Postlethwaite in a statement.
