Shaun Seow is exiting his post as CEO of Mediacorp to join its parent company, Temasek.<\/p>\n

The board of Mediacorp will begin a search for Seow\u2019s successor. Seow will continue with his duties as CEO and assist in the transition until September 30.<\/p>\n

Seow was appointed to his current role in July 2011 after holding various leadership roles across the company\u2019s TV, radio, print and digital businesses. He will now be joining Temasek\u2019s Telecom, Media & Technology investment team, which includes Mediacorp in its portfolio.<\/p>\n

Seow said, \u201cIt\u2019s been an exhilarating ride and I\u2019m grateful for all the opportunities given me, capped by the privilege of leading Mediacorp as its CEO. Having completed its move to Mediacorp Campus, its new home in Mediapolis, as well as a major business review this year, Mediacorp is about to write its next chapter. I know it\u2019s in good hands under Chairman Ernest Wong, someone I respect deeply. I\u2019ll miss my talented colleagues, to whom I owe a debt of gratitude for their steadfast commitment to our work. Still, I\u2019ll never be too far away in my new role at Temasek. I, too, will be writing my next chapter, and I\u2019m looking forward to it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Chairman Ernest Wong said, \u201cShaun is a bundle of energy and is completely dedicated to his work. He has contributed much and provided yeoman service and commendable leadership during his many years with Mediacorp. During his term as CEO, he spearheaded our intense drive into digital media. He will be well remembered for the successful take-off of Toggle and for his other digital innovations and initiatives. I have no doubt we will continue to draw on his deep domain knowledge in the Media & Entertainment business hereafter. I wish him well in his new undertaking at Temasek.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
