CMP Media's EE Times Launches French Language Web Site; Names Local Editor for EETimes.frPRNewswire-FirstCall CMP Media's EE Times, the premier electronics industry news source, announces the launch of EE Times.fr (www.EETimes.fr), a French language online news edition focused on the information needs of all French speaking electronic engineers and engineering managers. The web site features daily news stories, new product information and design tutorials. A weekly email newsletter service will debut later this month. EE Times has named Anne-Francoise Pele, editor of the new web site. Anne-Francoise studied for five years at the Universite Catholique, where she earned a degree in international relations and the 'la maitrise,' in linguistics (pure linguistics, translation and interpretation). She also studied at the Universite de Nantes earning a 'Diplome d'Etudes Approfondies' in linguistics. She worked for the press agency, Presse + (Paris) and for the International Conference center in Montreux (Suisse) as an interpreter and a translator. Based in Grenoble, Anne-Francoise will provide regional industry coverage, and she will work closely with Junko Yoshida, EE Times' Paris-based European Bureau Chief. "The hallmark of EE Times Network is its in-depth local industry coverage tied into a global news presence, and we are pleased to have Pele and EETimes.fr join our comprehensive network," said Richard Wallace, CMP Electronics Group, VP/Editorial Director. "Anne-Francoise brings experience and unique skills to our global online publishing operation." This French language online news edition is part of EETimes' global expansion into key markets, which will continue throughout the year. In January, EE Times launched a local language web site in Germany, EE Times.de, to complement the newly improved EETUK.com site. Each local language site will have a dedicated editorial staff. "Once again, we are responding to the information needs of the global electronics engineering industry by providing the largest (more than 50) and most experienced network of international editors covering this industry in the language our audience prefers," said Wallace. The EE Times.fr office is located at WTC Business Center Grenoble, 5, place Robert Schuman BP 1510, 38025 Grenoble Cedex 01 - France. Pele can be reached by phone at 04-76-70-64-58 or by email at afpele@cmp.com. Complete editorial and sales contact information is available under 'Contacts' on the eetimes.fr website.
