BRW unveils new app, website and magazine redesign
Fairfax Media’s business magazine BRW today launched a major redesign of its print edition and website, along with a new iPad app.
The move is the first major project led by new publisher Amanda Gome and editor James Thomson.
Gome joined the Financial Review Group in October after previously being CEO of Crikey publisher Private Media, while Thomson joined from the same company late last year where he was editor of SmartCompany.
Gome and Thomson joined Mumbrella editor Tim Burrowes in a live Google Hangout to discuss the launch. View the replay here:
Interesting you didn’t mention who had done the redesign. I am sure neither Amanda or James has the skills required to produce such a great looking mag.
Oh gawd, here we go again. Tired old “brand” trying to play catch-up. I’m reminded of Homer Simpson and the escaping pig on a spit… “It’s still good, it’s still good!” Honestly, why would serious business people pay good money for yesterday’s news when savvy players can get all they need and more for free.

excellent redesign, always a good cross section of news and views. lots of new energy on board and it shows. congrats to all.
The Borg is obviously a lover of business news. But he/she/it lacks the knowledge of whats going on here. Amanda and James are bringing back the good old days of BRW. Just you watch them. It will be just like the 80s. Without the whisper.
