Nelson-Rowe will also continue to serve as Co-Chair of CMP's Networked Economy Conference and will be charged with adding new conference programming. "Laurel's undying dedication to CommunicationsWeek is truly motivating to the other members of the management and sales teams," said Mike Azzara, Publisher. "As Associate Publisher, Laurel will now pair that dedication with her extensive editorial and sales experience to build even stronger ties to our customers and business partners."

She was a reporter on CommunicationsWeek's launch team in 1983, and held many different editorial posts at the publication before serving as Editor-in-Chief from 1989 to 1992. Her promotion comes on the heels of two others at the newsweekly: Jeff Calore was promoted to National Sales Manager from Eastern Regional Manager; and Amy Krause was named Western Regional Sales Manager from District Sales Manager. In addition, the publication announced that former Internet World Publisher, Pam Rock, has returned to CommunicationsWeek as Eastern Regional Sales Manager.
