Announcing min's 21 Most Intriguing People in Media and Hottest Launches of the Year


Thursday, November 10, 2011

Here is min's 2011 class of 21 Most Intriguing People in Media. This event has been an annual for us since 2003. (See last year's winners.) As you can see from the list below, the 21 honorees represent what we feel are the media leaders that have stepped up this year to make a mark in the challenges we face today in magazines, digital, media brands and marketing/advertising arenas. As an example, repeat Intriguing  performers Hearst Magazines president David Carey (2007 when pioneering the now defunct Condé Nast Portfolio) and HM president/marketing and publishing director Michael Clinton (2004) are acknowledged this year for HM's absorption of the former Hachette Filipacchi Media U.S. And Geoff and Derek Handley, co-founders of The HyperFactory are honored for their innovations in the move from mobile to mobility.

Also as an annual feature we showcase the "Hottest Launches" for 2010/2011 from Samir ("Mr. Magazine") Husni of the University of Mississippi's Magazine Innovation Center.

We do hope you will join us on December 5 at New York's Grand Hyatt to support those people who have made our industry innovative, successful and intriguing!
