Silicon Sensor with new Management Structure:
Supervisory Board ratifies Dr. Giering as CEO
New Management Board at Silicon Sensor GmbH
October 01, 2008
Silicon Sensor International AG, one of worldwide leading manufacturers of
optical high-precision-sensors, has restructured its management. The
supervisory board ratified Dr. Giering as CEO of the company. 'We are
convinced to continue on our strategic orientation by this step without
friction losses.' said Ernst Hofmann, chairman of the supervisory board,
confidently.
Trigger for the reorganization was the released demission of Dr. Bernd
Kriegel. Dr. Kriegel resigned from the Executive Board immediately
effective from September 18, 2008. His dismissal as board member of Silicon
Sensor International AG is based on good cause, especially due to the deep
disruption within the Executive Board an in relation to the Supervisory
Board. In addition Dr Bernd Kriegel also resigned as Managing Director of
Silicon Sensor GmbH as well as of further affiliated companies.
The new Managing Directors of Silicon Sensor GmbH are Detlef Meissner and
Thomas Brosowski. Both are senior executives, possessing high appraisal
within the industry and from their colleagues, stand for continuity and
simultaneously for a considerable potential in future development. While
the move to the new production premises proceeds as scheduled, intensive
negotiations of new projects in the automotive sector take place in
parallel. First closed deals are expected still in this business year.
