Santosh Goenka: managing director
’The evangelist of b2b publishing’ is how you could best describe Santosh Goenka. His illustrious career to date spanning more than 26 years has taken him through every sphere of publishing. From a management trainee in 1981 with the leading newspaper group Indian Express to being the executive publisher of the business publications division, he has published some of India’s leading b2b publications like the IT front runner, The Express Computer. When he ventured out on his own, he established Strategic Newspapers wherein he launched 42 b2b short titles within a span of nine months. As a publisher, he has always gone beyond the realm of publishing and built communities. His quest for quality and community development becomes an enormous challenge in today’s multi-media scenario. He feels the traditional print medium is only the starting point. It must be supplemented with face-to-face interactions at industry forums, round-tables, conferences and trade fairs, with a combination of online and audio-visual media. Collectively, these all contribute to what can be best termed as ‘community wisdom’.
