Between 2015 and 2023, he was a member of the Management Board of pmOne AG and held the position of Group CFO from 2017 to 2023.
Prof Dr Klemens Joos, founder, shareholder and Chairman of the Advisory Board of the EUTOP Group, sees this appointment as the next step in EUTOP's special market positioning: "With the appointment of the former Minister President of Baden-Württemberg, the EUTOP Group is significantly strengthening its ability to continue to support its clients with excellence in the field of process-oriented political representation of interests."
Since 1990, the EUTOP Group - now with over 150 employees and structural advisors – has been supporting the work of interest groups of private companies, associations and organizations at the institutions of the European Union and selected EU member states as a structural process partner. In addition to the client's content competence, EUTOP provides the process structure competence, perspective change competence and process support competence that is now indispensable for successful representation of interests.
