Change of leadership at Keba
Keba Group AG is setting the personnel course for the future and has appointed Christoph Knogler as a new board member. He will take up his position on August 1, 2023. Keba's long-time CEO and chairman of the board, Gerhard Luftensteiner, will retire as planned at the end of September due to his retirement and will join the supervisory board as Keba co-owner. From October 1, 2023, the new board team with Christoph Knogler as CEO and spokesman for the board, Franz Höller (CTO) and Andreas Schoberleitner (CFO) will shape the further direction of Keba and its development.
Christoph Knogler has been managing director of the Keba Energy Automation business unit since 2020. This gave him the opportunity to get to know Keba holistically. Knogler had already been able to make a good name for himself as a successful manager in various industrial companies. Karl Kletzmaier, Keba co-founder and chairman of the supervisory board: “With Christoph Knogler we have gained a high level of technical expertise and at the same time continuity for the sustainable and successful further development of Keba.”
