Post by AVL in Croatia

A Life’s Work – and the Next Step After 47 years at the helm: Helmut List hands over operational leadership and assumes the chairmanship of the Supervisory Board Over nearly five decades, AVL - which emerged from a research and development environment and is defined by innovation as part of its corporate DNA - has evolved into a leading global technology partner for sustainable mobility solutions. “For me, this transition is a deliberate next step. At the same time, now is the right moment to make room for new perspectives in operational leadership,” says Prof. List. Lukas Walter, the incoming CEO, has played a key role in shaping AVL for years and has actively driven the company’s transformation. With his experience, international perspective, and close ties to the company, he embodies continuity—and at the same time, new momentum. “AVL is characterized by a pioneering spirit and the ambition to think mobility through from a technological perspective. We will consistently continue on this path,” said Walter. “Together with our employees, we will set new directions and actively help shape the transformation of mobility.” The transition will be seamless. The direction is clear. And perhaps that is precisely the strongest signal: That change succeeds best when it is built on a strong foundation. ©Doris Sporer/AVL
