The Baer Faxt Podcast: Art and Media with Michael Ringier

For this month’s episode, we met up in Basel with Michael Ringier, Chairman of the Board at Ringier—one of the largest and oldest media companies in Europe—and a prominent art collector in his own right. We spoke about the evolving media landscape as Ringier has grown from printed newspapers (remember those?) to a growing digital empire; the impact of the AI boom on media and the arts; and Ringier’s art collecting journey, as he explains how lessons learned from building his collection extend to how he operates his business today.
