NZZ Media Group expands management
NZZ Media Group appoints Andreas Bossecker to its executive board. Bossecker will head the newly created Technology division.
In spring 2014, following the adoption of the new strategy, the Board of Directors of the NZZ Media Group decided to make some adjustments to the organizational structure. These included merging the former Digital and IT divisions into a new Technology unit. This unit was previously managed by Andreas Bossecker on an interim basis. The Board of Directors of the NZZ Media Group has now permanently entrusted Andreas Bossecker with the management of this unit and at the same time appointed him to the Executive Board.
Andreas Bossecker (52) has many years of management experience in the IT and media sector. Before joining the NZZ Media Group, he held various roles, including building up one of the leading IT service organizations for publishers. The Technology division is responsible for the development of technological products and their operation within the NZZ Media Group. In the near future, Andreas Bossecker will focus on the Group-wide harmonization of existing systems, the flexible development of new products and a customer-oriented organization.
In the course of the digitalization of the media market, technology is gaining strategic importance. For Veit Dengler, CEO of the NZZ Media Group, it is one of the key success factors of modern media companies: "We need state-of-the-art technologies in order to understand user behaviour and to be able to systematize the analysis of customer needs. We will develop and distribute products on all channels so that we can profit more economically from our journalistic expertise."
