Calinos Entertainment has appointed Robert Zara as its new COO. “We are very happy that Mr. Robert Zara has joined the Calinos family,” said Fırat Gülgen, Calinos Entertainment’s Founder and CEO. “All business operations of our media group companies will now be under his direction.”

The executive first worked as a Media Director in Universal McCann Turkey and Universal McCann London between 1992 and 2004. “Our aim, as always has been, is to take Calinos Entertainment to the next level in response to our clients' changing needs,” he said.

 He also worked as General Manager at Universal McCann Istanbul between 2005-2011. “Having worked for different functions for both agency and broadcasters on local terms,” Zara said. “Working in Calinos Entertainment in worldwide functions will be an appealing challenge for me.”

 He later went on to serve as Head of Marketing for Doğan TV as Head of Marketing across all media between 2011-2018. His departure led to his decision to join Demirören Media as Chief Commercial Officer, and now Calinos Entertainment as COO. “I believe that he will continue his success in both advertising and publishing at Calinos. I wish him success,” Gülgen said.
