About

I have a long term experience in leading people in a challenging IT business environment. After management jobs at IBM and EPSON, I have helped BIXOLON mini printers (former Samsung business unit) to set up a high performance culture in Europe serving more than 25 countries. My goal is to become the most successful printer manufacturer by providing innovation and real benefits to retailers. We want to be the market leader by 2015. Specialties: I am an expert in printing technologies for retailers. My focus is to recommend reliable solutions who make retailers save money. By implementing newest innovations insto miniprinters, I am serving large retailers across Europe. With my team in Germany, we are inventing new solutions which provide benefits to retailers and their customer which they have never seen before. Our solutions shrink or avoid receipts to save money and reduce environmental impact.
