New member of the management board
Bernd Steinbrenner joined the management team at manufacturing software provider Industrie Informatik at the beginning of the year. He replaces Eckhard Winter, who has been given a new role within the company.
As the new CCO (Chief Customer Officer) of the Linz-based company, Steinbrenner (46) is responsible for Sales & Marketing at Industrie Informatik. In his previous positions, including at IBM and Lenovo, the focus of his work was always on sales and market-developing tasks.
