The EBU has appointed the head of the digital innovation at Flemish public broadcaster VRT, Ezra Eeman, as its first head of digital.
In his newly created role, Eeman will be responsible for leading all digital initiatives, as well as for steering change and innovation throughout the European Broadcasting Union (EBU).
He will work closely with EBU members who have a digital-first strategy and with other industry execs to exchange experience and inspire other members.
He joins from Belgian broadcaster VRT, where he was head of VRT Start-Up, a digital innovation lab founded in mid-2013 to figure out new digital concepts and formats.
In his previous role he was also responsible for Open VRT, an online community for creatives in Flanders that acts as a showcase for young talent and encourages collaboration with public service media.
