Vandenhaute leaves Woestijnvis
Summary
Wouter Vandenhaute has cut all ties with Woestijnvis, the TV production house he founded in 1997. He remains CEO of De Vijver, the holding company he co-owns with partner Erik Watté, Corelio (publishers of Flanders Today) and SBS (TV channels VIER and VIJF).
Wouter Vandenhaute has cut
all ties with Woestijnvis, the TV
production house he founded in
1997. He remains CEO of De Vijver,
the holding company he co-owns
with partner Erik Watté, Corelio
(publishers of Flanders Today) and
SBS (TV channels VIER and VIJF).
The move is seen as creating a barrier between Woestijnvis and SBS so that the former can return to creating productions on behalf of the public broadcaster VRT, where it started out and achieved its greatest successes. With Vandenhaute gone from Woestijnvis, the production house is less likely to be influenced directly or indirectly by the interests of competitors VIER and VIJF.
