Maria Trombly has been a successful journalist for more than 15 years. Her career began at the Chicago Tribune. In the mid-90s, she covered the war zones of the former Soviet Union for Reuters. She was at Computerworld during the dot-com boom, and has been covering the global securities industry for the last seven years.

In 2004, she came to Shanghai to set up a bureau for SourceMedia (formerly a unit of Thomson, which recently acquired Reuters). Then, in late 2005, she incorporated her company in Hong Kong and, due to overwhelming demand from US publications, increased her staff from two assistants to over a dozen full-time employees and as many freelancers, located around the world. She and her staff file, on average, between 15 and 25 stories per week, ranging in length from 250-word news briefs to 2,500-word trend stories.

In the summer of 2007, Trombly Ltd. launched Emerging China, an online publication covering business in Central and Western China.

Now, the same high standards that have attracted and continually satisfied Computerworld, Securities Industry News, CIO magazine, Managing Automation, and dozens of other influential US business publications are available to custom publishing clients.
