Initially, the company had shareholders Vasil Mero with a 30% ownership stake and Miesseco LTD, an offshore company registered in Cyprus, owning 70% of the shares.

Within 2016, the offshore company Miesseco LTD acquired all the shares, becoming the sole owner until October 2018, when it sold a 33% ownership stake to businessman Theodhori Çami for 330 lekë. In April 2019, Miesseco LTD also sold the remaining shares to businessman Vasil Mero. This year (2019), the company changed its name to INTER MEDIA GROUP Shpk.

Since then, Çami and Mero have been the sole shareholders of the company with ownership stakes of 33% and 67%, respectively, even though they exchanged shares between each other. An attempted purchase of 60% of the shares by the Kastrati Group was cancelled.

In 2018, the company established Euro Balkans News Shpk and acquired broadcasting rights under the well-known European logo EuroNews. With licensing from the Authority of Audiovisual Media in 2019, it began broadcasting as EuroNews Albania.

Responding to MOM, the company states that the television is a direct franchise of "Euro News" S.A in Lyon, France, and "meticulously applies its independent editorial policies, the EuroNews Editorial Charter, Code of Ethics, and Code of Conduct, as well as operating fully in respect of fundamental freedoms and human rights."

The company also states that it is a 100% shareholder of "Tok Media" Shpk, which owns "In Radio" with a broadcast license on the 105.7 frequencies. It holds a 40% stake in "Inter Active Media" Shpk, which owns "IN TV". Additionally, the same company owns "La Strada" Shpk and "City Wings" Shpk, both focused on outdoor advertising services.

Although not officially mentioned in any position within the company, the former minister and former Member of Parliament from the Socialist Party, has a leading role at EuroNews Albania.
During a media meeting of the Euronews TV branches in Europa held in Tirana in August 2023, François Chignac, Editorial manager branded affiliates Euronews/Africanews at EuroNews Group S.A, thanked Blushi, shareholder Theodhor Çami, and Bjorn Xhokaxhi for what he called the success of the television in Albania.
Blushi has a career as a journalist, politician, and writer. He began his career as a journalist after the 90s. In 1999, he entered politics and was appointed Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs in the government of Prime Minister Fatos Nano. From 2003 to 2005, he served as Minister of Decentralization and Local Government.
He was a member of the Albanian Parliament as an elected representative from the Socialist Party from 2001 to 2017. In 2016, due to conflicts with Prime Minister Edi Rama, he broke away from the socialists and founded the party LIBRA, which failed in the next elections and was dissolved. In 2018, Blushi became the General Director of Top-Channel. Despite his previous conflicts with the Prime Minister, he was accused by opposition media of having pro-government stances in the television he directed.
The leak of salary data for over 600 thousand Albanians for January 2021 put Blushi in the media spotlight, as he was shown to have a salary of 24 million lekë, or around 245 thousand dollars, making him the highest-paid person in Albania. Blushi denied receiving that salary and claimed his payment was 24 times smaller. In a second release where April 2021 salaries were published, Blushi's salary was reported as 16.8 million lekë, or around 165 thousand dollars.
Blushi was also accused in the media of having ties with a controversial group of businessmen involved in waste incinerator concession contracts, as his wife Eva Blushi was a co-shareholder in the company "United Services Group" EAD established in Bulgaria, alongside Mirel Mërtiri and Klodian Zoto, who were declared wanted by the Special Prosecution Office and are facing trial in absentia for corruption. Eva Blushi was a shareholder from 2019 to June 2022. The company was reported as closed in April 2023. A lawyer of Blushi denied the accusations and stated that the publishers would be sued for defamation.
According to media reports, Blushi assumed a leadership role at EuroNews in the summer of 2022.
