Harry Ziegler will become Editor-in-Chief of the Neue Zuger Zeitung from January 1, 2016. He succeeds Christian Peter Meier, who is moving to the Neue Luzerner Zeitung as Head of the Reporter Pool.

Harry Ziegler (1963) was born in Zug and has many years of journalistic experience. After studying economics and political science in Switzerland and English-speaking countries, he worked in the city section of the "Zuger Zeitung" and then switched to the communications industry for several years. From 2000, he worked at the "Neue Schwyzer Zeitung", where he headed the editorial team for almost ten years from 2005. He has been Deputy Editor-in-Chief of the "Neue Zuger Zeitung" since February 2015. "Zug is my home, I grew up here and have close ties with the city and canton. I'm really looking forward to the new challenge," says Harry Ziegler.

The former editor-in-chief Christian Peter Meier is moving to the Neue Luzerner Zeitung as head of the reporter pool at his own request on January 1, 2016. The 51-year-old has managed the Neue Zuger Zeitung for nine years, during which time he has made a significant contribution to the newspaper's success with commitment and prudence.
