Amy Rowell, a well known editor and analyst in the CAD and PLM industries, has been announced as the editorial director of Desktop Engineering magazine. This is a great fit for both sides, given Amy's lengthy experience and qualifications in mechanical engineering, and with 20 or so years editorializing and analyzing the industry at publications such as Cadence Magazine, Computer Graphics World, Innovate Forum and as an analyst for Cyon Research.
This probably brings a lot of relief to the Desktop Engineering team who, we think, has been very hard pressed to compensate for the retirement/sabbatical of Tony Lockwood last year. They still did a bang up job, but the loss of that kind of expertise is always hard on the remaining team.
Since the birth of Amy's first child last year, from which she took some time off from the day-to-day hassle of squeezing news out of the industry, we are also glad to see her back in the market, and look forward to pestering the hell out of her for ed. opps.
Desktop Engineering is, as always, an excellent publication and we are continually keen to see the CAD industry publications grow and develop.
