New Editor-in-Chief at Women in Business
Effective July 1, 2014, Zurich-based journalist Yvonne Zurbrügg took over as editor-in-chief of *Women in Business*, the Swiss business magazine aimed specifically at women, succeeding Sabine Hauptmann, who has left the company.
The 29-year-old Yvonne Zurbrügg can already look back on ten successful years in journalism and has worked at Gossweiler Media, Tages-Anzeiger's NEWS and the commuter newspaper 20 Minuten, among others. Most recently, she was deputy head of entertainment and head of the "People" department at Schweizer Illustrierte. Her special achievements were recognized at the beginning of the year: The magazine Schweizer Journalist voted Yvonne Zurbrügg, who originally comes from the Bernese Oberland, one of the top 5 young Swiss journalists.
"We are proud that we have been able to recruit Yvonne Zurbrügg, an accomplished journalist and experienced editorial director, to lead Women in Business. Together, we want to position the magazine and the associated talk series even more strongly in the market over the next few months and improve the concept in one or two areas," says publisher Daniel Kaczynski. The first issue under the direction of Yvonne Zurbrügg will be published in September.
