Klaus Asshauer
- Manager
- Entrepreneur
- Broadcast Expert
Following the studies of Electronic Science in my hometown Bochum, Germany I started my career in 1991 as the Assistant Head of Network at Germanys first private Broadcaster RTL Television. In this position I developed and innovated the first privately used Satellite- and SNG operations in Germany.
In 1993 I was promoted as Head of Satellite Operations at RTL Television. From there my team and I built one of the most powerful Teleports in Europe for RTL Television in order to keep the competitive advantage throughout the broadcasters. At this time I was nominated to play a crucial role at the foundation of ENEX SA, a News Consortium of Europe´s privately owned broadcasters. For RTL I was a delegate to the ENEX Executive Committee, and became a member of the Board. From there I built a huge global network with the leading Broadcaster.
Under my leadership arose in 1995 the first Broadcast IP-WAN for real time TV-transmissions featuring dynamic Bandwidth allocation, Quality of Service (QoS) and Multicast options. Until the End of 2007, Klaus led the planning task force for the new RTL Group Teleport.
In November 2007, I founded the company examedia GmbH and became the Managing Director. The first customer for examedia was Red Bull Media House in Austria. As a consultant I led the development and integration of the Red Bull Content Pool based on Hadoop technology.
Later on for Kabel Deutschland I allocated TV-PoPs across Germany as those were separated from former Telekom facilities. With the commencement of Vodafone Giga TV the Team of examedia takes a relevant role in deployments, integrations and product management for this exciting Entertainment platform.

The next stop, FOX Networks Group, where I expanded my expertise in content rights, media & channel distribution, VOD planning and broadcast management. At FOX, I was responsible for leading the German operations team, managing a wide range of media assets and overseeing the planning and distribution of content across various VOD and TV platforms. This role allowed me to deepen my knowledge of content rights, strategy and distribution, while also developing strong industry relationships with partners and stakeholders across the globe.

After training as a Radio and Television engineer, I joined „Deutsche Luftwaffe“ working several years as a master expert in service, maintenance, operation and education on diverse Radar Systems. Finally I decided to study and completed as Dipl.-Ing. in Communication Technologie.
In 1988 I joined „Forschungs- und Technologie Zentrum“ of „Deutsche Bundespost Fernmeldetechnik“ in the department for „Cable TV“. My responsibility was designing and development of Satellite receiving systems for analog TV feed-in to cable networks.
From the beginning (early 90th) I was involved in working out details for DVB specifications and in mid 90th based on this knowledge I designed and built up the first play-out center for digital Radio- and TV Services of „Deutsche Bundespost“. By this I developed a first system preparing „Service Informations (SI), a first system for analysing DVB Transport Streams, a first monitoring system and integrated Conditional Access Systems for our services on cable networks.
BTW: over the years, „Deutsche Bundespost Fernmeldetechnik“ migrated to „Telekom“. From there end of 90th department for „Cable Network for TV services“ was outsourced to „Kabel Deutschland“ and at the end (2016) bought by „Vodafone“.
Throughout my career, I have developed comprehensive expertise in all substantial parts of preparing TV Services with the need to navigate shifting business models, deal with growing technological complexities, and compete in an increasingly crowded and unpredictable market.
My extensive network and connections within the industry have been invaluable in driving successful collaborations and partnerships. I am passionate about the ever-evolving media landscape and remain committed to leverage my skills and experience to contribute to the future of our clients.
