With over two decades of leadership in the media sector, he has been responsible for group-wide finance, M&A, corporate development, and investor relations, and has played a key role in driving sustainable growth at MFE. He has also served on the boards of leading media and communications companies, including EI Towers and Endemol N.V., bringing broad experience in corporate leadership, media strategy, and financial management.
