Former Forbes editor Maidment creates consulting firm

Paul Maidment, a former co-editor of Forbes who resigned earlier this year, has created a consulting firm called Bystander Media.

The firm, according to this site, provides “strategic planning, editorial change management and content services for new media and traditional publishers.”

Maidment, who resigned from Forbes in June, oversaw its Web operations. He said at the time that he was “ready to advance to the next phase of my life.”

Prior to joining Forbes.com, Maidment launched the FT.com. In recognition of his work as editor of Forbes.com, Maidment was inducted into the MIN Digital Hall of Fame in 2010, won the Media Business Innovation Award in 2007, won three Editorial Excellence awards for the site and an Editor of the Year Award. In addition, the video column he wrote and presented on international political economy, Notes on the News, won Best Online Business Video Award in 2008.
