Cultural Times, one of the companies involved in the tourdates.co.uk website, and the publishers of the free London Tourdates magazine, have announced the appointment of former EMAP exec and more recent digital media consultant GiGi Dryer to the role of Commercial Director.
Confirming the appointment, Cultural Times MD Richard Hodkinson told CMU: "GiGi couldn't be better placed to take the company to the next level of development. Her experience in cross platform media companies is second to none and her instinctive understanding of the business and our commercial aims makes this an ideal appointment for us".
Dryer herself added: "The growth in live music and the increasing importance of cross-platform media puts Cultural Times at the forefront of the next generation of entertainment companies. The seamless integration of print and digital platforms is the most exciting development in arts media for some time, and I'm delighted to be a part of it".
