WARSAW: Markus Tellenbach is stepping down as president and CEO of the Polish media company TVN, with Jim Samples, the president of Scripps Networks\u2019s international division, becoming president of the management board.<\/p>\n

Samples, who heads TVN\u2019s supervisory board, will lead the company until a new senior executive for TVN is appointed in due course. The move comes a year after Scripps Networks Interactive completed its acquisition of TVN.<\/p>\n

Kenneth W. Lowe, the chairman, president and CEO of Scripps Networks Interactive, said: \u201cTVN has been an incredibly valuable acquisition for Scripps Networks, and continues to break new ground in developing and monetizing compelling content for Polish audiences. Markus Tellenbach is an accomplished media executive who has positioned TVN for sustained growth in both the linear and digital businesses. We thank him for his leadership and collaboration since the acquisition by Scripps Networks, and for his service to TVN over the last seven years.<\/p>\n

\u201cJim Samples has been instrumental in the success of our international business over the last year, and his deeper involvement in Poland will enable continued integration between TVN and our wider global operations. The outstanding management team at TVN has been integral to the company\u2019s recent success, and will ensure that the business continues to go from strength to strength in the future.\u201d<\/p>\n

Samples said: \u201cTVN is a vibrant and growing company that plays a key role in Scripps Networks\u2019 international growth strategy. This is a very exciting period for the company, and I\u2019m looking forward to working even more closely with the management team and TVN\u2019s employees over the coming months to continue to grow the business for the long term.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
