Vince Rospond will be tasked with sales of Aconyte products in North America, reporting to Aconyte’s publisher Marc Gascoigne. This is a reunion of sorts for the two, who worked together building the Black Library imprint for Games Workshop in the Aughts. Previous to that, Rospond was a director for distributed client services at Simon & Schuster.
Aconyte was formed as part of the Asmodee Entertainment platform to handle publication of fiction based on Asmodee’s game properties (see “Asmodee Unveils New Fiction Imprint”).
