Talpa Restructures, Names Maarten Meijs CEO

Talpa has altered its management structure, with Maarten Meijs becoming CEO, overseeing both Talpa Studios and Talpa Network.

Both companies will continue to operate independently with a group-wide management structure under Meijs, effective March 2. Joost Brakel will end his run as CEO of Talpa Network following a transition period.

Meijs will work closely with Guy Vossen (CFO), Barry Masclee (COO) and Carlijn Oosterik (CHRO).

“Talpa Studios and Talpa Network combine strong local media brands, exceptional creative talent and proven international format expertise,” Meijs said. “By aligning our leadership at group level, we build on a strong foundation while creating greater clarity and focus—fully respecting the independence of our individual companies. This allows us to move faster, make bolder choices and further strengthen our creative and international impact. The Netherlands remains a powerful springboard for new ideas, where great ideas can evolve into globally successful formats.”
