Silicon Valley Biz Journal editor Baumann resigns

Greg Baumann has resigned as editor of the Silicon Valley Business Journal so that he can move to be closer to his family, according to a story on its website.

The story states, “‘Greg has been a keystone of the SVBJ. His positive impact on the organization has gone well beyond the newsroom. He has represented us well in the community and displayed great pride, passion and dedication to his craft,’ said Publisher Malcolm Bordelon. ‘While we have enjoyed the good fortune to work with Greg, we wish him well in his future endeavors.’

“The search for a new editor in chief will begin immediately, Bordelon said.

“‘This is an exciting time for a great editor to join the Silicon Valley Business Journal and American City Business Journals,’ Bordelon said. ‘Our digital content and audience is growing in dramatic ways, expanding our reach and impact, and creating many new opportunities for talented journalists.

“‘The SVBJ is in the unique position to be covering a business community that is literally changing the way the world does business, everyday,’ he said.”
