Laura Meyer definitively elected to the NZZ Board of Directors
At Saturday's annual general meeting, NZZ shareholders elected Hotelplan CEO Laura Meyer to the board of directors. She succeeds Carolina Müller-Möhl, who is stepping down from the board. Dominique von Matt was re-elected to the board for another term.
Meyer has led the Hotelplan Group as CEO since 2021 (Werbewoche.ch reported). She is a proven digital expert and has a wealth of professional experience, including in the media sector, the media company announced on Saturday. In March, NZZ announced that Carolina Müller-Möhl would not be standing for re-election and proposed Laura Meyer as her successor (Werbewoche.ch reported).
At the AGM, which was held in person at the Kongresshaus Zurich for the first time in two years, the shareholders also approved all other motions put forward by the Board of Directors "by a clear majority", according to the statement. They also confirmed Dominique von Matt for a further term of office on the Board of Directors.
Thanks to the positive business performance, the Annual General Meeting also decided to pay a dividend of CHF 250 per share. This is CHF 50 per share more than in 2020. No dividend was paid in 2021 due to the uncertain situation. (SDA/swi)
