Starting his new role in May, Christian will become CEO for the DACH region at EIT InnoEnergy, a body of the European Union. 

With more than two decades of leadership experience in mobility, clean tech and renewable energy, Christian will lead InnoEnergy's efforts in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. 


He brings valuable expertise from his previous roles at Volocopter and Daimler/Mercedes-Benz — where he led significant global partnerships with major players like Renault/Nissan, HERE Technologies and Microsoft — positioning him to drive Europe’s industrial decarbonisation and strengthen its leadership in clean tech.

We are thrilled to welcome him at this defining moment of the industrial and energy transition.”
