Luxembourg, September 23, 2025 -- SES, the operator of the ASTRA satellites, and HD PLUS GmbH, the operator of the hybrid SAT and IPTV platform HD , will be working more closely together following a leadership change in HD PLUS GmbH.
Christoph M hleib, Managing Director at SES in Germany, will take over from Andreas M ller-Vondey, as the new Managing Director of HD PLUS GmbH and join the management board of HD PLUS GmbH with effect from October 1, 2025. Christoph will oversee both SESs businesses in the DACH region.
M ller-Vondey will step down from his role at HD PLUS GmbH on September 30, 2025.
Andreas has played a decisive role in shaping HD since 2010. We appreciate Andreas for his commitment over the past 15 years, and wish him all the best for the future, says Deepak Mathur, President Media Vertical at SES. As TV and video consumption patterns evolve, the strategies of TV broadcasters and hardware manufacturers are also changing. We believe a closer integration between SES in Germany and HD PLUS will bring valuable opportunities for TV broadcasters, content providers and consumers.
HD PLUS GmbH is a wholly owned subsidiary of SES established in 2009. It markets the product HD , which offers a range of HD and Ultra HD channels receivable in Germany via SES's ASTRA satellite system. Over 16 million TV households in Germany receive their TV programming via ASTRA satellites - completely free of connection costs or monthly subscription fees. HD offers consumers in Germany access to high-definition television and numerous convenient TV services via satellite and IP. Together, the two companies reach not only all SAT TV households via the HD branded operator app in many TV sets from major TV manufacturers, but also numerous other TV and content fans via IPTV.
