CMP Media Names Peter Clarke News Director of Semiconductor Business News, An EE Times Network Web SitePRNewswire-FirstCall CMP Media announces the appointment of Peter Clarke as news director of Semiconductor Business News (SBN) (http://www.siliconstrategies.com/), the leading daily news web site for semiconductor industry managers and executives. Clarke, based in London, is an eighteen-year semiconductor industry news veteran and has been an EE Times' European correspondent, columnist and contributor since 1994. From 1984 until he joined EE Times, Clarke was a staff editor for Electronic Engineering, now known as Electronic Engineering Design and for Electronics Times, the UK edition of EE Times. Clarke joins recently promoted SBN Editor, Mark Lapedus along with an expanded global news team dedicated to covering semiconductor news-as-it-happens for industry managers and executives. Averaging nearly 250,000 unique visitors each month and traffic volume of more than one million page views per month, SBN -- available only online -- is the world's #1 semiconductor news and information resource. As an EE Times Network web site, SBN complements EE Times' design coverage with a sharp news focus on semiconductor fabrication -- particularly in the area of foundries, next-generation chip making equipment, and semiconductor business/technology issues. SBN's wire service approach to breaking industry news is a strong complement to EE Times and EBN's online news franchise. Together with the recently introduced weekly Silicon Engineering section in the pages of EE Times; EEdesign.com, the newspaper's online design community; EBN's award-winning supply chain and outsourcing coverage; plus regional print and online editions in Europe and Asia; no news organization in the world covers electronics more thoroughly. SBN, EE Times and EBN's online news sites publish more news stories, more often, from around the world of electronics than any other source. "Having news director Peter Clarke strategically positioned in Europe -- with a timely link to Asia -- makes him the "starting point" of our around-the-clock, around-the-globe news coverage of the semiconductor industry," says Richard Wallace, EE Times VP/Editorial Director. "Both seasoned technology journalists, Lapedus and Clarke, have extensive experience covering semiconductor industry news in Silicon Valley, Europe and Asia. They will work in concert with EE Times and EBN news bureaus around the world to provide readers with the industry's most comprehensive and authoritative semiconductor news coverage," says Wallace.
