NEW YORK , September 30, 2013 (press release) – CFO Publishing, leading publisher of news and information for senior finance professionals, today announced the release of their CFO Tablet Edition for the iPad, a new app built specifically for the tablet format that includes interactive graphics, engaging stories and interactive advertising opportunities.

CFO Publishing has been providing senior finance executives with thought-provoking news and analysis for three decades through their flagship CFO magazine, CFO.com and the CFO digital edition. The new CFO Tablet Edition allows users to interact with our complete line-up of trusted editorial content like never before. Readers will get a first look at original content, not yet published in the magazine or online; provided through vivid graphics and multimedia, covering the most important and timely issues facing senior finance professionals. From within the CFO Tablet Edition, readers will also be able to easily access news articles from CFO.com via daily RSS feeds and the latest issue of CFO magazine.

The mobile trend is not slowing down. A recent Morgan Stanley study predicts mobile web usage will surpass desktop usage by 2015. Consumer spending on digital magazines is expected to exceed $80.1 B by 2016 according to a recent study by PriceWaterhouse Coopers. It’s clear that more and more readers are turning to their tablets to access the news. “As our audience moves increasingly toward mobile platforms for information, CFO Publishing has embraced new methods of connecting with readers” said Richard Rivera, SVP of CFO Publishing. “The new tablet edition will allow CFO to offer more flexibility, more immersive content and more dynamic interaction and discussion of the most critical topics in corporate finance today.”

In addition to improving the reader experience, the new CFO Tablet Edition will also enable CFO Publishing to offer increased value to advertisers by expanding the potential engagement of ads. Ads will become interactive and provide brands the opportunity to more fully engage with their customers. For more information on advertising opportunities contact: Katie Brennan at 646-277-6476.
