Bradford-based bmedi@, the network for the creative, new media and digital industries in Yorkshire, has announced two new appointments to its board.
Ros Beattie has been named chairman replacing Nick Burton, a director of Keighley-based Open Skies, who is standing down. Ros Beattie, who was previously vice-chairman, is joined on the board by Ian Green, a director of GREEN Communications, Wakefield Media Centre and Bradford-based Fuelmyblog.com, a social network for bloggers.
Ros said: “Nick Burton has done a tremendous job at bmedi@. It
is now our job to ensure that the company continues to thrive and
further grow our network of digital and creative companies in the West
Yorkshire region.”
Ros is a director of Bradford-based Company Solutions which
offers administration, finance and corporate governance advice to
businesses - particularly companies in the area of new technology.
Ian who lives in Menston, is a former journalist and serial
entrepreneur having successfully launched businesses in publishing,
online, media and property.
He said: “With the huge growth of digital companies in Yorkshire and
the increasing influence of social networking, now is a very exciting
time to be involved with bmedi@ as it continues to make a contribution
to this fast growing section of the Yorkshire economy.”
Congratulations Ian - and welcome aboard :)
