The French-Swiss daily newspaper Le Temps will soon have a new editor-in-chief.

The current deputy editor-in-chief Pierre Veya will succeed Jean-Jacques Roth. Veya will take up his post on May 1, according to a press release issued on Friday. He began his journalistic career at the newspaper L'Impartial after graduating from the business school in Delsberg. He began as a correspondent for the canton of Jura and was then responsible for the cantonal section. He then moved to L'Hebdo magazine, where he headed the business section for six years. In 1997, he was appointed deputy editor-in-chief of the business paper Agefi, where he finally took over as editor-in-chief from 2001 to 2004. A year later, he became deputy editor-in-chief at Le Temps, where he actively contributed to the development of the daily's new business and financial pages. Pierre Veya was awarded the Alstom Prize in 2006.
His predecessor Jean-Jacques Roth had held this position since 2002. His future task will be to implement the publishing strategy defined for Le Temps for the coming years, particularly for digital information media.
