The lifetime achievement award from the newspaper industry caps a three-decade career during which Mr. Cassino has worked for financial services companies, the computer and semiconductor industry and media companies such as Knight Ridder and Scripps.
"Kip's work is nothing short of genius, and I'm elated that his peers in the research industry are recognizing him with this award," said Gordon Borrell, CEO of Borrell Associates.
