Perry Publications ready to relaunch Business Traveller

Perry Publications has claimed back the Asia-Pacific edition of Business Traveller, which was licensed out to Interasia Publications, and is to re-launch the magazine in March this year. The company has also set up a new business unit - Perry Publications Asia. Details of the new business were not provided, however recently-appointed publisher Peggy Teo confirmed there would be restructuring in the sales and editorial departments of Business Traveller. Ms Teo will be responsible for setting up and managing the new business unit, the re-launch of Business Traveller Asia-Pacific, as well as providing support for other editions of the title and overseeing the general business in Asia-Pacific. Ms Teo joins the company from Miller Freeman Asia, where she was responsible for the travel group's five Asia publications and 18 international publications in the North East Asia, Europe and Middle East markets as regional advertising manager since 1996. She also spent two years at the Oriental Press Group as advertising manager. Perry Publications also holds the UK, US, Germany and Middle East versions of the magazine. Mr Jonathan Wall is to remain associate publisher and editor of the magazine. He joined Interasia Publications as deputy editor of Business Traveller Asia-Pacific in1989 and was appointed editor of the title in 1996. He was promoted to associate publisher and editor of Business Traveller last year. Ms Teo told MEDIA about her recent appointment, "When Nick Perry, the managing director of Perry Publications, confirmed that he was to reclaim the Asia-Pacific title, I immediately took up the challenge. "Besides establishing a new business outfit, the first in Asia for Business Travellers' group of publications, I also had the opportunity to oversee the final stage of the buyout completion. "Business Traveller Asia-Pacific has for the past 19 years, received recognition of its editorial quality and with the re-launch, it will be the definitive travel consumer title, bringing in line the prestige from the other international editions."
