Mannheim, Baden-Württemberg, Germany
Focused on getting things done. Believe in people, empowerment and collaboration. For more than 25 years, I have worked across security, software, manufacturing, telecoms, media, and other industries. Not because I was collecting sectors, but because I was following a consistent belief: technology only matters when it creates real change for real people. Today, I lead Primion with a clear conviction: converged security is one of the most important and most misunderstood topics in business. Too many security decisions are driven by fear, buzzwords, complexity, or vendor noise. My focus is to cut through that. If you are a security leader, a C-level executive navigating digital transformation, or a talent looking for a place where you will be challenged to grow, let’s connect.
As CEO, I look forward to building on Primion's strong reputation for delivering exceptional customer service, innovative security solutions and advanced applications. Together with our talented team of nearly 500 experts in 5 European countries, a sizable partner network, more than 25 years of experience from +10.000 installations, we will continue our accelerated growth strategy, driving value by protecting our customers' employees, assets and data through converged physical security, access control, time & attendance, IoT and video surveillance applications. We will continue developing expanding our strong customer references in vertical markets like transportation, critical infrastructure, healthcare, education, government and telco, among others.
