A new chapter begins with the appointment of Giuseppe Santagada as Group CEO, who officially took up his role on 1 January 2024. Santagada, an experienced industrial engineer with an MBA from the University of St. Gallen and further studies at Harvard Business School, brings with him an impressive career ladder, most recently as Group COO and Delegate of the Board of Directors at Vebego, where he worked in Switzerland, Germany and Austria.
As the new CEO, Santagada will play a key role in the further development of the company’s strategy. He plans to work closely with the fourth generation of the ERNE family, the Board of Directors and the Executive Board to strengthen the organisation along the value chain and align it even better with market requirements and customer needs.
Daniel Erne, Chairman of the Board of Directors, commented favourably on the new appointment: “In Giuseppe Santagada, we have the ideal manager to ensure the continuity, success and strategic growth of our family business.” Santagada’s extensive experience and far-reaching network are seen as fundamental resources for the future development of the Group.
