Berlien's CEO Appointment Extended at Osram
Light manufacturer Osram Licht AG has extended the appointment of CEO Olaf Berlien by five years.
“Mr. Berlien has driven forward the reorganization of Osram with a lot of energy and persistence — and with great success,” said Peter Bauer, chairman of the Osram supervisory board. “The company’s focus on high tech and a clear growth strategy are carrying his mark.”
Prior to becoming CEO of Osram in January 2015, Berlien was CEO of M+W Group GmbH. Before that, he served as CEO of the technologies division of ThyssenKrupp AG, overseeing, among other things, the elevator and automotive segments as well as the engineering activities. Under Berlien’s leadership, the division became the company’s most successful business unit. From 1996 until 2002, Berlien was a member of the managing board at Carl Zeiss AG. He started his career at IBM Germany and holds a doctorate degree from the Technical University of Berlin.
Osram Licht is a lighting manufacturer for diverse applications ranging from virtual reality, autonomous driving or mobile phones to smart and connected lighting solutions in buildings and cities.
