The Gunter Media Group and the National Society of Black Physicists Announce Strategic Partnership

SOUTH ORANGE, N.J., May 1, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- The programs designed by The Gunter Media Group (GMG) for the National Society of Black Physicists (NSBP) will promote its members' research and its outreach programs for students interested in the physical sciences.

Since 1977 the National Society of Black Physicists has been promoting the well being of Black physicists and Black students in the physical sciences.   Over 100 members, plus domestic and African affiliates, look to the NSBP for marketing support and as a conduit by which to access the critical information they require for their research.

The NSBP chose GMG for its expertise in the academic publishing arena and its strong relationships with the publishers of many of the most influential scientific journals.  GMG will be developing marketing, sales and publisher affiliated programs for the NSBP, and assist in the redesign of its website.

"We are developing virtual journal concepts that highlight the scholarly work of our members and at the same time create value for publishers of that work. We are glad to have the services of GMG to help us bring these concepts to market," says Lawrence Norris, Managing Director of NSBP.

Darrell Gunter, President and CEO of The Gunter Media Group is a leading expert in the Scientific, Technical and Medical Publishing Industry and in his 30-year career has held executive positions in many of the leading publishing companies.

"My team and I look forward to working with NSBP in developing and launching programs that promote the work of its members, the dissemination of physical knowledge and introducing young men and women to the opportunities in this field," states Darrell Gunter.

Paul Gueye, President of the NSBP states, "Darrell Gunter has a sterling track record in developing products in the academic publishing arena.  His expertise in product development, marketing, sales and the application of new media to academic publishing will help us change the vista from which the world can see the scholarly output of our members, and that of our affiliates around the world."
