As she steps down effective January 1st,  Simon takes the organization forward with the implementation of a strategic review of its operations that was completed over the last 12 months.  New editorial partners have been added to the group and ENEX’s commercial activities amplified.

On joining as Chairman Simon Hof said: “ENEX is a matter close to my heart. I am very much looking forward to the new task and am grateful for the trust placed in me.”

Enex has signed a new partnership agreement with DELFI, a leading digital publisher in Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania.  The Baltic States have been a long-standing target for Enex expansion.

Enex is now represented in 26 of the EU’s 27 member states with only Malta remaining as a missing component. DELFI operates in each of the Baltic languages and with an accompanying Russian language service.

Enex members exchange news content across the group and receive additional news content from the news provider’s newsroom in RTL City Luxembourg.
