SABEW expands into Canada

The Society of American Business Editors and Writers is adding international members to its membership, adding 85 members from Canada in recent months.

The biggest group of new business journalists to the organization have come from the Toronto Globe and Mail, which signed up 45 reporters and editors.

Another 28 joined from Rogers Media, which owns more than 70 magazines and professional publications and 53 radio stations across the country, said SABEW executive director Warren Watson.

SABEW, which is based at Arizona State University, also expects business journalists from the National Post and the Toronto Star to join. The organization held an event in Toronto earlier this month where Fortune managing editor Andy Serwer spoke.

As part of its international expansion, SABEW is planning an event with TV Azteca at its spring convention in Dallas, Watson said.
