CEO Martin Weiss is reorganising his team. Stefan Atanassov has been recruited as Chief Product Officer and Anne Karoline Frizen as Head of Corporate Development.
BurdaEducation, one of the world's largest producers of textbooks and teaching materials, is now relaunching with a new presence and strengthened team. The company's field of activity goes beyond pure production and also includes the support of design, production, delivery and distribution processes in the area of textbooks and teaching materials. BurdaEducation’s position as market leader in this field is also based on the willingness to share the expertise it has built up over the years in workshops and training sessions as well as on the comprehensive customer advice provided.
"Education is the cornerstone of development. We are proud to make an important contribution with our products, especially in India and Africa. At the same time we can use our expertise and offer our customers high quality and reliable service - a partnership that pays off for both sides,"
Martin Weiss, Burda Board Member
