Media Broadcast names new TV business chief

German broadcasting and media services provider Media Broadcast has named Holger Meinzer as head of its TV business unit.

Meinzer, who was previously in charge of Media Broadcast’s international DVB-T2 business, focusing on the Asian market, replaces Henrik Rinnert, who is leaving the company.

“We are delighted that Holger Meinzer, an experienced and well-connected expert in the national and international media landscape from inside Media Broadcast, will head the business unit TV,” said Bernd Kraus, CEO of Media Broadcast. “As someone who has been with the company for many years, he can ensure continuity, especially as regards the core DVB-T business. We would also like to thank Henrik Rinnert for his outstanding services to the company. With his renewal of the ProSiebenSat.1 contract he has, not least of all, laid an important foundation for the future of our DVB-T platform – the ideal conditions for the successful development of one of media Broadcast’s key areas of business. We wish him all the very best for his future career.”
