RTL Capital Studios appoints Präkelt as new leader
In a significant move within the German media industry, Thomas Praekelt has been appointed as the new Managing Director of RTL's studio in Berlin. Praekelt, a seasoned media executive with over three decades of experience within RTL Group, will take over the reins from Jutta Bielig-Wonka, who is retiring after a long and distinguished tenure.
Praekelt's new role marks his first time leading a studio outside of Leipzig, where he has held most of his leadership positions within RTL. His extensive experience, spanning 25 years in leadership roles, is expected to contribute significantly to the growth of the Berlin studio.
The Berlin studio, a key player in the German media and entertainment market, focuses on developing and producing television content. Praekelt's appointment is part of RTL's broader strategy to strengthen its production capabilities in Berlin. His management skills and deep understanding of content creation are expected to help the studio expand its portfolio and enhance its production output to meet market demands.
Jutta Bielig-Wonka, the previous leader of the Berlin studio, is recognised for her contributions during her tenure. Her retirement, effective in the new year, signifies the end of an era for the studio but also marks a new beginning for both Praekelt and the studio.
The transition of leadership is a significant event, symbolising a new era for the Berlin studio of RTL. Praekelt's background in content production and management within RTL Group, coupled with his proven leadership skills, promises an exciting future for the studio.
The official start date of Praekelt's leadership at the Berlin studio of RTL is set for the new year, coinciding with Jutta Bielig-Wonka's retirement. The change in leadership is a testament to RTL's commitment to continually evolve and adapt to the ever-changing media landscape.
