Marc Felix Serrao visits Axel Springer in latest development

Journalist Marc Felix Serrao Joins Axel Springer's Global Reporters Network

Marc Felix Serrao, a well-known journalist, is leaving the Neue Zürcher Zeitung (NZZ) to join Axel Springer's Global Reporters Network. Serrao, who has been heading the NZZ's Berlin bureau since 2017 and served as its Germany editor-in-chief since 2021, will start working for Axel Springer from now on.

Serrao's primary assignment will be at "Die Welt", but he will also contribute to other Springer brands like "Bild", "Politico", and "Business Insider". Mathias Döpfner, CEO of Axel Springer, emphasized the importance of the Global Reporters Network and mentioned charismatic authors like Robin Alexander, Paul Ronzheimer, and Constantin Schreiber. Marc Felix Serrao will soon join this circle of "journalistic superstars".

Serrao praised Axel Springer, stating that it is more relevant journalistically than ever. He believes that no other media house promotes the values of the West, civil liberties, and market economy with such reach and impact as Axel Springer.

During his tenure at NZZ, Serrao steered the liberal Swiss paper towards a more right-wing course in Germany. Before joining the NZZ, Serrao worked for the "Süddeutsche Zeitung" until 2016 and has also contributed to Springer's "Welt am Sonntag" as a freelancer.

As for the successor to Serrao at the NZZ, no announcement has been made yet. Serrao will not only be contributing to the written media but will also appear as an expert on Welt TV.

Serrao's base at Springer will be "Die Welt". This move marks a significant shift in the journalistic landscape, as one of Germany's leading journalists takes on a new challenge with one of Europe's largest media companies.
