CNN Business launches a perspective section

CNN Business, which earlier this month rebranded itself from CNNMoney, has launched a perspective section.

The section is run by Bethany Cianciolo, who was hired in August from Fortune, where she was associate editor of opinion for the last three years.

The section will focus on commentary on topics the new CNN Business is zeroing in on — the future of global business, innovation, tech, markets and the economy, inclusion and diversity, corporate responsibility and leadership, climate change.

Perspectives first commentary pieces include opinions from Melinda Gates, Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi, Eurasia Group’s Ian Bremmer and Morgan Stanley CEO James Gorman.
