“I am honoured and grateful to have been given the opportunity to work with our teams to support teachers in helping all students reach their potential and provide independent journalism and inspiring local entertainment to all Finns. During these eight years, we have together transformed Sanoma from a multi-country media company to the leading European K12 learning company with a strong, successfully digitalised, Finnish media house. I see this as a good moment to hand over, as we have clear strategies for future profitable growth for both businesses and key initiatives are well underway. I want to thank our customers, partners and all Sanoma employees I have had the pleasure to work with during these years, and shareholders and the Board for their trust and unrelenting support for our successful transformation,” says Susan Duinhoven.
