Mathias Schmidt

Mathias Schmidt has two decades of experience in managing mid-sized companies in challenging situations. As CEO or CSO in predominantly technical sectors, he has assuredly led companies through restructuring, M&A and growth phases. Against the background of his professional roots in sales and marketing, his focus is on systematic cost optimization and on the orientation of companies to the needs of customers and markets.

The successful transformation of a manufacturer of lighting products into a systems provider for lighting solutions is an example of his many management tasks. The company was able to disproportionately increase turnover and earnings due to its systematic digitalization of its products and the development of a web-based marketing concept.

Mathias Schmidt has managed centralized and decentralized organizations in Germany and abroad with up to 70 sites and 1500 employees. His pragmatic hands-on mentality, modern style of management and respectful and trustworthy dealings with customers and partners on a national and international stage complete his manager profile.
