VIENNA, Va., November 20, 2010 — Executive Mosaic, a publisher of a growing group of online and print media outlets, announced today that Gerry A. Simone has been named editor-in-chief of the company and its related media properties covering federal marketplace news and trends in the Washington metro area. The announcement was made by Executive Mosaic CEO and Publisher Jim Garrettson.
“Gerry is an accomplished and trusted adviser in online and print media,” said Executive Mosaic CEO and Publisher Jim Garrettson. “We are delighted to have Gerry on board to take Executive Mosaic’s growing media properties to the next stage and to continue to build upon an already strong readership.”
A recognized leader in online, print and broadcast media initiatives, Simone spent the past decade on the other side of the business, securing high-profile coverage for government contractors and technology companies in top national financial and trade media and advocating for the right story to be told.
“Throughout my career, I have thrived on working with respected journalists as a national spokesperson for area companies,” Simone said. “I am compelled by Executive Mosaic’s unique media focus on stories about the corporate leaders and business of government contracting — one of the largest and most vibrant U.S. markets. I’m honored to lead the firm’s media business into 2011 and look forward to maintaining a strong record of excellence in producing daily news, profiles and features.”
That work is already underway. Under Simone’s leadership, GovConExecmagazine — which just entered its second year of publishing — will soon launch its March issue, which showcases leading government contractors’ perspectives on cloud computing.
She will also provide editorial direction for more than five daily online news sites, including: GovConWire.com, TheNewNewInternet.com, ExecutiveGov.com,  ExecutiveBiz.com and GovConExecutive.com.
