Profile bio
About Mark Gilchrist
Over a 3-decade career in the U.S. and Asia, I've served as Publisher of 12 market-leading, sector-specific Asian B2B trade magazines, 4 of which I launched to market; Group Development Director for Thailand's largest media conglomerate, where I created and launched a new daily English newspaper in Bangkok in partnership with The New York Times, and also created and ran business operations of two new international TV networks; Senior Manager, Strategy for Asia's then largest, U.S.-listed dotcom media group in Hong Kong, arranging regional M&A deals and running three subsidiaries; and Senior Editor for Japan's top Investor Relations firm. I am a Lawyer in the New York Bar. In 2023, I graduated with an M.S. in Strategic Communication from Columbia University in New York City, earning my 4th degree. I love building, growing, guiding, and turning-around organizations. I enjoy societal, market, political, and economic issue analysis; reading; and deep thinking. I am also highly experienced in global marketing, sales, market research, crisis management, communication outreach, and troubleshooting. I'd welcome hearing about new potential roles.
Listed skills include Strategy, Due Diligence, Start Ups, Management, and 53 others.
