Digital responsibility newly bundled in two teams

The Zurich-based media company Tamedia is reorganizing its digital operations: While responsibility for these efforts has previously rested with individual products, it will be consolidated into two new teams next spring.

The new Digital News & Development division will be active from April 1, 2016 and comprises two departments: The first department will take care of the digital offerings within the news platforms and will be headed by Peter Wälty. Wälty is relinquishing his previous position as Deputy Editor-in-Chief of 20 Minuten, as Tamedia announced on Tuesday.

The second department, headed by Thomas Gresch, will develop company-wide technologies such as target group-oriented online advertising. He will also be responsible for payment models. However, Tamedia said on request that nothing new is currently planned in this respect. (SDA)
