| MUMBAI:
Entertainment Network (India) Ltd (ENIL) managing director AP Parigi has put in
his papers.
Currently serving his notice period, Parigi's nine-year tenure
with the organisation will end on 30 September. He will, however,
continue to be associated with the company as non-executive
director.
Says
Parigi, "I turned 60 years earlier this month and I thought I should devote
more time and energy to pursue my long cherished personal interests and passions.
It was indeed a privilege to be a member of the team at the Times Group."
Parigi joined the Times of India Group in 2000 and led the company's foray
into radio, OOH media, and event management. Parigi also managed the acquisition
of the UK radio business franchise of the SMG group.
Says
Bennett Coleman MD and chairman ENIL Vineet Jain, "Parigi
has contributed immensely to the development of the FM radio
sector. He has also been associated with several new media
initiatives of the Times Group including Times OOH, Times
Music and the event management business during his nine year
tenure with the group. The Board of Directors of ENIL and
I reluctantly accepted his decision to step down as MD of
ENIL. Parigi will, however, continue to serve as a non-executive
director on the board of the company."
Parigi has more than 35 years of experience spanning across
several sectors including telecommunications and media &
entertainment. He has held a number of key positions including
CEO of BPL Mobile Communications. He is also the chairman
of the FICCI Radio Forum.
