AspenCore, publisher of several leading B2B electronics media including EETimes and EDN, has embarked on a reorganisation that has seen the departure of North American managing director, David Blaza, and veteran Electronic Products Magazine editor, Jim Harrison.
David Blaza spent nearly 20 years with EETimes and has held a number of short-term roles since leaving UBM in 2013
David joined AspenCore in March this year. Until May 2013, he was employed for over 19 years at the EETimes Group. He then had short spells at Avnet and Maker Media, with a year as a freelance consultant between these roles.
Jim Harrison reported and edited for Electronic Products for over 11 years
Jim Harrison was an editor with Electronics Products Magazine for over eleven years, covering digital and analog integrated circuits, passive components, computer peripherals, software design tools, and single board computer technologies.
Before joining Electronic Products, Jim was the chief engineer of Lincoln Engineering. Previously, he worked at the Nokia Broadband Systems Division in Petaluma, CA as an Engineering Manager for five years, before holding the same position with Calix Networks.
AspenCore is a division of Arrow Electronics. We should know more about the strategy behind the reorganisation later this week after meetings with AspenCore at Electronica in Munich.
