Video interview
Here is a video interview that was done with Rian Liebenberg when he joined Schibsted Media Group as new CTO in May. In the interview he explains his background and ambitions for Schibsted. He is interviewed by Lena Samuelsson, Schibsted´s EVP for Communications and Corporate Social Responsibility.

“What was unknown to me was the sheer size and magnitude of the operation”, he says.
Technology-focused organization
