As of today, August 1, the specialist editor and digital expert Dorothee Frank will join the Mittler Report Verlag team to strengthen the house’s digital footprint as Online Editor-in-Chief.
Dorothee Frank will be responsible for the online presences of the print publications ES&T (European Security & Technology), Hardthöhenkurier and ESD (European Security & Defence) as well as the online publication Soldat & Technik, the daily professional newsletter European Defence Daily (EDD) and all social media accounts.
“We are pleased to have secured Ms. Frank, a recognized expert who brings both editorial and digital know-how to effectively increase the relevance and visibility of all our online channels. By creating the position of Online Editor-in-Chief, we are consistently strengthening our entire digital offering,” said Sylvia Fuhlisch, Publisher of Mittler Report Verlag.
Frank began her career at Behörden Spiegel, where, through a traineeship, she received her journalistic training and later took over the Defense and Military Technology desk. This was followed by various positions at different military trade publishers.
Dorothee Frank sees the greatest potential at Mittler Report
“I am looking forward to bringing my experience as a journalist and in the digital field to Mittler Report Verlag with its highly interesting and successful military trade publications and events,” said Dorothee Frank on her transition. “Readers are increasingly using digital offerings in addition to print, so it is essential to serve both optimally. In particular, the breadth of editorial topics and publications, as well as the collaboration with the other editors at Mittler Report Verlag, offer, in my view, the greatest potential in Germany.”
“Print remains our strongest pillar, as readers, especially in the military environment, continue to show a strong interest in printed publications. Magazines will continue to accompany us—especially for background information and analyses. But of course we are also an online medium,” emphasized Peter Tamm, publisher and managing director of Mittler Report Verlag and the Tamm Media group.
“We are already very well positioned here. With Dorothee Frank and the creation of the Online Editor-in-Chief position, we will further expand our already highly successful online channels and sharpen each one’s profile so that Mittler Report Verlag becomes the News Portal for all military topics as a Single Stop for all areas of interest,” Tamm continued.
