The Board of Directors would like to thank Thierry Drilhon for almost five years of dedicated service to promote the development of the Group. Thanks to his experience in the field of new technology and his outstanding personal qualities, he raised Euro Media Group's ambitions to the European and international level.

In order to continue the transformation initiated by Thierry Drilhon, a new CEO will be appointed in the very near future. Until he or she arrives, the Board of Directors has entrusted the functions of interim CEO to Patrick van den Berg, the Group's CFO. His task is to pursue the development strategy and to assume control of ambitious ongoing projects.

Patrick van den Berg joined EMG in 2005 after seven years at PwC, and was appointed CFO at the start of 2013. His experience at the heart of EMG and his considerable knowledge of the sector make him the Group's ideal choice to manage this interim period.
