Andrew Nusca of Fortune writes about the magazine’s hiring of six journalists who formerly worked for the tech news site GigaOm.
Nusca writes, “Fortune has long valued its technology coverage, and it’s no secret in our industry that the team behind it is tight-knit. In that spirit, we’re delighted to announce that we’ve hired six more talented journalists, all formerly of the well-regarded tech site Gigaom: Stacey Higginbotham, whose coverage has focused on the so-called Internet of things; Barb Darrow, who specializes in cloud computing; Katie Fehrenbacher, who covers energy technology; Mathew Ingram, who covers media and the social web; Jeff John Roberts, who focuses on technology law and policy; and Jonathan Vanian, who focuses on business technology.
“They join a team composed of Heather Clancy, Philip Elmer-Dewitt, Erin Griffith, Robert Hackett, Kia Kokalitcheva, Adam Lashinsky, Michal Lev-Ram, Dan Primack, Leena Rao, and yours truly, plus a veritable army of talented contributing writers and editors.
“Fortune has always covered how technology is changing the workplace—85 years of publishing prove it—but things are changing faster and more dramatically than ever before. Look for our newly expanded team to double down on covering the technologies that are remaking the foundations of global business, from cloud computing and data analytics to machine learning and artificial intelligence, in the magazine, at our live events, in our daily Data Sheet newsletter (to which you should subscribe!), and on Fortune.com.”
