ZEAL Network has appointed Super chair Hans-Holger Albrecht to its supervisory board at its latest AGM.
Albrecht replaces Peter Steiner, who resigned last May, ending his 12-year stint with the German lottery brokerage firm.
Steiner’s resignation also saw Carola Gräfin von Schmettow named chair of the board.
Albrecht currently serves as chair of Super’s board, joining in February 2023, and chair of online marketplace Scout24 Group’s board – elected in June 2018.
He also serves as deputy chair of Greek media company Antenna Group’s advisory board.
The appointment sees Albrecht reuniting with ZEAL CEO Stefan Tweraser, with the pair both previously holding c-suite roles at music streaming service Deezer.
Albrecht was CEO between February 2015 and July 2021, while Tweraser was chief marketing officer and chief product officer from October 2018 to October 2021
Prior to that, Albrecht was president and CEO of telecommunications firm Millicom between October 2012 and January 2015 and held the same positions at international mobile gaming firm Modern Times Group – for 12 years from 2000 to 2012.
Commenting on the newly elected member, Schmettow said: “We are delighted to welcome Hans-Holger Albrecht to the Supervisory Board of ZEAL Network SE.
“With his extensive international management and supervisory board experience, he will provide valuable impetus for ZEAL’s continued growth strategy.”
At the AGM, it was also agreed to increase the basic dividend from €1.30 (£1.12) to €1.40 per share for the financial year of 2025.
Tweraser said: “We are delighted to continue ZEAL’s success story together with our shareholders.
“The increased basic dividend underlines the strong development of our business and our commitment to allowing our shareholders to participate in the company’s success.”
Earlier this month, ZEAL Network announced revenue of €54.3m for Q1 2026, representing a 6.2% year-on-year increase.
