Stäubli
Management change at the start of the year
Stäubli, a global provider of industrial and mechatronic solutions, is starting the new year with a new CEO.
Gerald Vogt (50), previously responsible for the global business in the Robotics division, will take over as CEO from Rolf Strebel (65), who is retiring, on January 1, 2021. With Vogt, an experienced manager from within the company's own ranks will take over the management of the diversified and internationally growing family business. Vogt has been responsible for the global robotics business as Group Division Manager since mid-2016 and is already a member of the Group Executive Board. He has been with Stäubli for almost 20 years.
To ensure a smooth transition and in preparation for his future duties as CEO, the Stäubli Board of Directors nominated Vogt as the designated successor to Rolf Strebel at the beginning of 2020. Since then, he has been supporting the current CEO and is also responsible for the introduction and implementation of the new business strategy for Stäubli until 2030.
Christophe Coulongeat (39) will assume global responsibility for the Robotics division on January 1, 2021. The French manager has been Deputy Division Manager in the Robotics division since 2018 and previously gained extensive experience in the packaging and automation industry in France, Austria, the United Arab Emirates and Switzerland.
