Abraxas: Gutmann becomes new CEO
As of May 1, 2016, there will be a change in the management of Abraxas Informatik AG.
Following the departure of his predecessor as CEO of the Abraxas Informatik AG three years ago, CFO Félix Mauron took over his position at the request of the Board of Directors. Following the successful stabilization of the company, Mauron has now asked the Board of Directors to release him prematurely from the double burden. "The Board of Directors is pleased that Félix Mauron will remain with Abraxas and continue as CFO," says Chairman Paul Glutz.
The new CEO
The position of CEO will be taken over by Reto Gutmann, who moves to Abraxas from the management of ETH Informatik, effective May 1, 2016. Gutmann has been a member and Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors of Abraxas since September 2013 and has played a key role in the development of the current corporate strategy, according to the statement. As former CEO of Siemens IT Solutions and Services AG, he knows the Swiss IT market from many years of experience. He will relinquish his mandate as a member of the Abraxas Board of Directors on the occasion of the change.
