Arizent, the newly relaunched business information company that advances professional communities, today announced that Janet King is joining the company as Vice President of the research division. In this position, King will be responsible for all research products and related editorial content to help drive actionable insights for all the communities served by Arizent in financial and professional services.

“We’re thrilled to have Janet join the Arizent team,” said David Evans, Chief Content Officer, Arizent. “Janet’s passion in storytelling with data has delivered a strong track record of dynamic and comprehensive research which will be vital to our day-to-day reporting as we will leverage her insights to drive all content.”

King holds a B.S. degree from Alfred University, and a MBA degree from the Franklin W. Olin Graduate School of Business at Babson College.

To further deliver on the company’s new mission, the editorial team is making some key moves within its organization. These include more focus on the disruptive topics that affect all of its customers such as technology shifts, culture change and policy evolution. The company is announcing the following changes, effective immediately:

• 
  Penny Crosman has been promoted to Executive Editor of Technology. In her new role, Crosman will define and lead American Banker’s technology coverage strategy, as well as assist and advise all Arizent titles in their coverage of how digital technologies are transforming the financial and professional services industries.

• Suleman Din has been promoted to Content Lead for all Arizent Conferences. In this role, he will assist the company’s event programmers in creating agenda-setting programs and deliver world-class speakers.
