Samuel Helbling, Managing Director and Publishing Director of Media-Daten AG in Zurich, is leaving the company at the end of the month. The publishing house also publishes Werbewoche, among other publications.
After holding various positions as a cultural journalist and copywriter, Samuel Helbling began his work in the publishing group in 1995 as editor for marketing and media economics at Werbewoche and was appointed editor-in-chief in 1999. Five years later, he became publishing director of Media-Daten AG Switzerland. In April 2007, he took over the management of the publishing house together with Dr. Laurin Paschek, and in this capacity he was largely responsible for the reorganization and relocation of the company back to the center of Zurich, as well as the relaunch of the flagship Werbewoche. The Media-Daten AG publishing house is the publisher of other titles such as Media Trend Journal, Schweizer Media-Daten and Top 150 Schweizer Medien.
Now that Media-Daten AG and Springer Medizin Verlag AG have already moved into a joint location in September, it is planned to merge them in terms of company law and organization as of January 1, 2009. Until then, Laurin Paschek will remain responsible for the business of Media-Daten AG as Managing Director. As of today, Eleonore Droux, Managing Director of Springer Medizin Verlag AG, will take over the operational management of Media-Daten AG's local staff. As of 2009, Laurin Paschek will continue to act in an advisory capacity for the Media-Daten business in Switzerland as a member of the Board of Directors and will drive forward its strategic development.
