Linz, Austria, July 15, 2024 - Kontron AG, a leading global IoT technology
company, announces the expansion of its management team. Philipp Schulz and
Dr. Johannes Fues have been appointed to the management board of Kontron AG,
taking on new, strategically important roles within the company. Philipp
Schulz will be responsible for the Aerospace/Defense and North America
divisions and Dr Fues will oversee the GreenTec division.
Philipp Schulz has been with Kontron since October 2022 and has been heading
the North American division since January 1, 2024. Mr. Schulz held various
management positions at voestalpine AG for over 15 years.
Dr. Johannes Fues has previously worked for leading management consultancies
on organizational restructuring and transformation projects. As CFO of KATEK
SE (since 2018), Fues was tasked with overseeing financial matters as well
as environmental, and social affairs, and responsible corporate governance
(ESG).
At the same time, the contract of Michael Riegert, member of the Executive
Board, COO and head of the Industrial Division, has been extended early by
three years. With these strategic personnel decisions, Kontron AG is
well-positioned for the future and will continue to strengthen its position
as an innovation leader in relevant markets.
Hannes Niederhauser, CEO of Kontron AG, said: 'We are delighted to have the
continued support of Philipp Schulz and Dr Johannes Fues, who have already
demonstrated their expertise throughout their careers. The new management
board portfolios will further advance Kontron's future initiatives by
expanding the North America and Aerospace business as well as environmental
technology.'
