Mediaparx: Philipp Akeret becomes CEO ad interim
The Bern-based online agency Mediaparx, with offices in Biel and Zurich, is restructuring its organization.
According to Mediaparx CEO Anton Hofmann, the management situation is changing as a result of increasingly complex projects and planned growth. As acquisition, project and management tasks were previously combined in the hands of the managing partners, a separation of project and company management tasks is obvious, says Hofmann.
The three working partners of Mediaparx have decided to hand over the management of the company to Philipp Akeret on an interim basis from January 1, 2011. Philipp Akeret is a partner at Schweizerische Treuhandgesellschaft and has many years of experience in business development and the repositioning of companies. As CEO ad interim, Akeret's first task is to prepare the management and structures for the planned growth. His second task is to support Mediaparx in the search for an industry insider who will take over the management of the company as managing partner.
The separation of functions also serves to decouple management from the Board of Directors. Anton Hofmann will remain on the Board of Directors and will focus on web application projects and corporate social communities in future.
