On Tuesday the business information company Questex announced Patrick Nohilly as its new chief financial officer, to work out of its New York headquarters. Nohilly succeeds Debra Mason, who left in September to take on the CFO role at SourceMedia. Nohilly most recently served as president and CFO at Messe Frankfurt North America, the U.S. subsidiary of the global trade fair company. His experience encompasses financial oversight, mergers and acquisitions, operations, and centralized services; he has completed over 20 strategic acquisitions. “Pat is a transformational executive," said Questex CEO Paul Miller. "His extensive financial and operational expertise makes him a huge asset for Questex. We are highly acquisitive and now with Pat on board we have the ability to bolster our organic growth through M&A to add scale, capabilities and resources.” [caption id="attachment_172909" align="alignright" width="150"] Benjamin Landy[/caption] In a staff memo, Fast Company editor-in-chief Stephanie Mehta announced the hiring of Vanity Fair's Benjamin Landy as executive editor, digital, effective November 11.
