Forbes Asia content to be primarily produced in Asia

Forbes Asia’s content creation team will be predominantly located in Asia, writes Justin Doebele, the new editor of Forbes Asia.

Doebele writes, “The main goal of this new, localized and integrated approach will be to provide even greater value to the worldwide Forbes community, especially those in Asia. This content creation will be carried out by a talented multinational staff in the Singapore and Hong Kong offices, as well as by our far-flung editorial bureaus, contributors and researchers across the region.

“As we begin this new chapter, hats off to former editor Tim Ferguson, who is owed a huge debt of gratitude. He and his team did a remarkable job during his tenure to create a strong editorial franchise for the Forbes Asia brand in the region.

“Aside from these changes, many aspects of the brand remain steadfast. One is an unshakeable commitment to outstanding business journalism, created with integrity and the highest standards of reporting and editing. Forbes Asia’s content is focused unabashedly on the chief headknockers—be they young entrepreneurs or established tycoons—and how they are contributing to Asia’s dynamic growth story.”
