Arben Bylykbashi

Arben Bylykbashi has been involved in the Albanian media market since 1999, when he founded the company ‘Club Muzikor’ Sh.a, where he first controlled 24% of the shares. His partners in the radio station were the producer Gjergji Shenko and two Greek businessmen, Nikolaos Papadopoulos and Ioannis Doudoulakis, who left the company between 2006 and 2008. Bylykbashi’s role in the company grew with time, first as administrator (CEO) and later as a majority shareholder. The main activity of the company is radio Club FM, but its operations extend to events management and advertising. Since 2015, ‘Club Muzikor’ became a family owned operation. According to the Albanian National Business Register, Bylykbashi owns 74% of shares and his sister-in-law, Olta Reka, 26% of shares. Another business of the Bylykbashi family is the company ‘Club Production’, which is owned by Flutura Bylykbashi, the wife of Arben Bylykbashi. This company operates in the fields of spot production and advertising, poster design and other publications.
