\n\tSTOCKHOLM: Among the changes within the management team at Modern Times Group (MTG) is the appointment of Anders Jensen, currently the executive VP of the group's Scandinavian free-TV and radio operations<\/span>, as CEO of MTG Sweden.<\/p>\n

\n\tKim Poder has been named CEO of MTG Denmark and Trygve Rønningen as CEO of MTG Norway. The country management roles are responsible for MTG’s free-TV, pay-TV and radio operations in each Nordic country.<\/p>\n

\n\tMTG digital accelerator MTGx comprises Viaplay, Play and Ventures. Jonas Karlén has been appointed as CEO of Viaplay with effect from August 18. Both he and Arnd Benninghof, the CEO of Play and Ventures, report to Rikard Steiber, MTG's executive VP and chief digital officer. MTG Executive VP Jette Nygaard-Andersen now also becomes CEO of the group’s Central European free-TV, radio and local digital operations (in the Baltics, Czech Republic and Bulgaria), and CEO of MTG Broadcasting Technology. Marek Singer steps down as MTG executive VP to take on the full-time role as CEO of MTG’s Prima TV joint venture in the Czech Republic.<\/p>\n

\n\tJørgen Madsen Lindemann, MTG's president and CEO, said: “These changes reflect our desire to capitalize on fast-moving consumer trends in our markets, as video viewing is increasingly multi-screen, online and mobile. This moves us even closer to our audiences through the multiple contact points provided by our unique range of highly relevant online and offline entertainment products. Our modern organization must therefore combine local execution with central Group functions that drive synergies and operational efficiency. The combination of our country organizations, the MTGx digital accelerator, and Nice content businesses is a winning formula.<\/p>\n

\t“Most of the new positions created today have been filled by internal appointments, which demonstrate the strength and depth in the management team. These talented and experienced managers will now work to develop their local organizations and streamline the relationships with our group central functions, so that we get the maximum benefit from this new setup.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
