CNNMoney is changing its name to CNN Business

CNNMoney executive editor Rich Barbieri and vice president and general manager Jason Farkas sent out the following on Monday:

CNN Business is the gateway to the future, covering the companies, personalities, and innovations driving business forward.
This new initiative will focus on the single biggest financial story of our generation: how technology is upending every corner of the global economy, forcing businesses, workers, and society itself to adapt rapidly, or be left behind.
We will do this by deeply covering the marketplace for innovation, ideas and disruption, and put the strategy, ethics and goals of tech companies under a microscope. Our reporters will bring users exclusive interviews with tech, business and media newsmakers — and lead the way on big ideas in careers, the future of work and markets.
See you on the 4th.
