Nayla Tueni is a Lebanese media leader known for her dynamic leadership of An-Nahar, one of Lebanon's most influential newspapers. As CEO since 2011, she spearheaded a significant transformation of the publication, successfully transitioning it from a traditional print newspaper into a digital-first media organization. Under her guidance, An-Nahar evolved into a "viewspaper," incorporating video content and live-streaming alongside its journalistic offerings. This shift embraced the growing demand for digital news consumption and helped modernize the newspaper for the digital age, reaching both local and global audiences. Tueni's focus on expanding An-Nahar's online presence led to the creation of a comprehensive digital platform, offering not only news articles but also multimedia content, including live-streamed events and videos. This forward-thinking approach allowed An-Nahar to remain relevant in a rapidly changing media landscape, ensuring its continued leadership in Lebanon's press. Her successful navigation of the challenges presented by Lebanon's economic and political crises further solidified her reputation as a resilient and visionary leader in the media industry
