PETER
HERTRAMPF
Founder / Owner / CEO
Peter, born in 1965, started his career as a radio journalist and presenter at the age of 21. In 1988, he switched from radio to television and worked as editor in chief and producer for a German television production company, providing content and program trailers for Eureka, Tele 5, Pro 7 and Vox.
During and after his studies of journalism and politics, he was working as a producer and director for different shows of ARD and BR from 1990 to 2005. His job as a presenter of a travel, sport and lifestyle show for more than 10 years allowed Peter to combine his skills in various action sports with his television career.
He was co-founder and CEO of Smaragd Medien GmbH from 1995-2001 and founded quattro media in 2002 as a global action sports video production and distribution company. Peter is also shareholder of Munich based production company Dropin TV GmbH.
Peter has lived and loved outdoor sports forever and still pursues his vision and passion: deliver athletes and their partners a global reach and a maximum of media value. Peter has truly become one of the key figures in the international outdoor sports media world.
