BRUSSELS, Belgium, Nov. 11 /PRNewswire/ -- TechInsights Europe, the leading dedicated information and marketing services business serving the European electronics market, announces that circulation of its flagship publication EE Times Europe will increase to 70,000, combined print and digital, in 2009.

EE Times Europe will also be published on a monthly basis as of January 2009, with four additional special issues devoted to: Test & Measurement; Avionics and Defense Electronics; Automotive; and Smart Sensors, Sensor Networks & Medical Electronics. These four special issues will provide targeted circulation into these specific markets as well as bonus distribution at leading exhibitions.

In addition, the current format of EE Times Europe in print will change to an A4 format and pagination of each issue will be increased.

"These significant publishing changes will enable EE Times to extend its reach and better address the evolving European market. Since EE Times Europe's online network is recognized as the most up-to-date European electronics news channel source with 100,000 monthly unique visitors, we recognize that the need for a bi-monthly print publication has diminished. As a result, the monthly publication will allow us to increase our audience and sharpen our focused circulation on developing markets and to deliver the ROI demanded by our clients," stated Andre Rousselot, VP Europe and Publisher at TechInsights Europe.

"The additional 20,000 copies represent a 40 percent increase in circulation, which will be aimed at the major European countries, with particular focus \ on the Central and Eastern European countries," said Luc Desimpel, Circulation Manager at TechInsights Europe.
