Troy, NY (Business Wire) – May 21, 2009 – GlobalSpec CEO Jeff Killeen is being honored in the May 2009 issue of BtoB’s Media Business magazine for his “innovative decisions” at the helm of the leading specialized vertical search, information services and e-publishing company servicing the engineering, technical and industrial communities. The publication will honor all winners of its sixth annual Top Innovators in Business Publishing Awards at a luncheon Tuesday, June 16, in the Mercury Ballroom of the Hilton New York.

Killeen is named 2009 Top CEO for a Small BtoB Company for his stewardship of GlobalSpec (www.globalspec.com). GlobalSpec is an e-media company that provides lead generation and brand exposure to manufacturers, distributors and service providers through searchable online catalogs, more than 60 e-newsletter titles, their industrial ad network as well as other other e-media solutions.

GlobalSpec, which has 5 million registered users around the globe - adding about 80,000 new users per month, is recognized for operating strictly as an e-business at a time when print catalogs dominated the marketplace, and for deciding to remain a registration site, which has developed quality traffic and served the company well in a time when lead-generation is the preferred method for b-to-b media companies to generate revenue online.
