Bill Koenigsberg, president, CEO and founder, Horizon Media, is the new Chairman of the Board of the 4As, having been elected to a two-year term at a Wednesday meeting of  the ad trade group’s board directors and officers.

Koenigsberg is the first chairman from a media agency to head the 4A’s board. For the past year, he has served as vice chairman working with Momentum Chairman and CEO Chris Weil, who concludes his two-year board chairmanship and will now serve as immediate past chair for one year. 

“With so much change, the opportunity for the 4As and my fellow board members to help shape the future of marketing has never been bigger,” Koenigsberg said. “It’s also time to empower our industry’s young talent with a platform to facilitate change not only within our industry but for the greater good.”

Nancy Hill, President-CEO, 4As, said: “I look forward to working with Bill and the other board members to guide and shape our association so that it remains relevant and stays ahead of the curve on the critical issues for the industry.”

Sharon Napier, CEO, Partners + Napier, continues her term as 4As board of directors’ secretary-treasurer.
