Somedia streamlines corporate structure
The Graubünden media company Somedia is simplifying its corporate structure as part of a new brand management. Several sub-companies are being renamed or dissolved.
The publishing company Südostschweiz Presse und Print AG will be renamed Somedia Publishing AG, as the media group announced on Tuesday. It will retain all media in the newspaper and online sectors as well as the publishing, event and subscription departments. Prepress, printing, magazines, periodicals, IT, book publishing as well as video and web production will be combined in the new company Somedia Production AG. The companies Südostschweiz Emotion AG, Südostschweiz Newmedia AG and Medien & Medizin Verlag MMV AG are dissolved and integrated into Somedia Production AG.
The changes will be implemented retroactively to January 1, 2015. The company is pursuing the goal of incorporating the term Somedia into the names of the companies as far as possible. The media company introduced the group brand Somedia at the beginning of 2014. The company was previously known as Südostschweiz Medien. The streamlined company structure will enable more efficient and improved collaboration within the Somedia divisions, the company also announced. The operational organization in the various divisions, the management structure and the management organigram are not affected by the changes. (SDA)
