- Renate Wittgenstein to head inhorgenta team as Product Manager
- Long-time industry member Johanna Eberl appointed deputy
“After many, successful years
at inhorgenta Armin Wittmann has taken advantage of an opportunity for further
professional development within the Messe München organisation. We would like
to thank him for his efforts and involvement and wish him all the best in his
new function.” These are the parting words by Klaus Dittrich, Chairman and CEO
of Messe München GmbH, for Armin Wittmann as he prepares to take on his new
position as Exhibition Director for AUTOMATICA.
Effective immediately, Renate
Wittgenstein will take over the management of the inhorgenta team as
Exhibition Director. The supporting function of Deputy Exhibition Director
will be in the
hands of Johanna Eberl, who until now has worked as Product Manager for inhorgenta. The proven team
consisting of Anne Dautremant, Sandra Neuwert and Angelika Wildegger
will
continue to cover all trade fair related responsibilities for
inhorgenta.
“We are pleased that
inhorgenta, a trade fair which has been extremely successful throughout the
years, will be able to draw on Mrs Wittgenstein’s long-time experience and thus
continue well-prepared for any future challenge,” comments Klaus Dittrich in
his welcoming address for the new team leader.
Renate Wittgenstein has been
consulting with the inhorgenta team in the last few months and has already
provided considerable, important input on the further development of the trade
fair. She has more than 20 years of experience in the jewellery, fashion, and
lifestyle industry. In 1982 Renate Wittgenstein opened an agency focusing on
product and project management, trend consulting, and the development of speciality
retail concepts. From 2000 to 2009 she managed her own concept store,
“Lebensart”, in Munich, considered one of Europe’s top 50 concept stores.
Johanna Eberl has worked as Project
Manager for inhorgenta since 2010. Thanks to her long-time experience as a
trade journalist she is extremely knowledgeable and has many contacts in the
jewellery and design sector. The foundation for Johanna Eberl’s expertise is a
result of her training as a goldsmith, which she underwent in Spain from 1999
to 2002. Her education continued with language, business and cultural studies, and she successfully graduated
in 2007 with a degree in business and cultural studies as well as a translator
for German, Spanish and English.
