History

United Business Media (UBM) has made an exciting announcement outlining the next step in the 5 year plan of transforming CMP Technology and the technology media market. CMP will restructure to become four independent operating divisions under the common banner of UBM:

* [http://www.techweb.com/aboutus/ TechWeb] – serving business technology communities

* [http://www.everythingchannel.com/ Everything Channel] – serving channel and systems integrator communities

* [http://techinsights.com/ TechInsights] – serving the creators of technology communities

* [http://www.think-services.com/ Think Services] – serving the game, call center, help desk and software development communities

Each of these newly formed divisions of United Business Media will offer business information tools and services to improve the productivity of the distinct communities that they serve. The new businesses will have both greater agility and direct access to the powerful resources of UBM – a $2.5 billion global media company.

As part of this strategy, we are very excited to announce the creation of our new independent UBM organization, TechWeb, being led by Chief Executive Officer, Tony Uphoff.
