| No Comment | After opening up our regional Johannesburg office in Rivonia, we realised we would have to add some staff, so a big welcome to Pierrette Spadoni, who is in charge of sales for Johannesburg for Bizcommunity.com. And at our Cape Town HQ, with the stunning view of Table Mountain (we're so jealous in Jozi!), there was the odd spot left to fill, which we have done so, with the super-efficient Gail Erispe, admin controller; as well as "IT guy" Mathew McLeod, who is assisting us on the IT development side. And not forgetting Cheryl Hunter, formerly of The Star media & marketing, who is contributing with special features and on various editorial projects. A big welcome to these, the newest members of Team Biz!
Have a good one! Louise Marsland, Editor, editor@bizcommunity.com
