Following approval by the members at Intergraf’s 2021 General Assembly Ulrich Stetter (DE) takes over as the new President of the association. Ulrich replaces Cees Verweij (NL).
Ulrich Stetter has been the Board Member since 2018. He is Managing Director of printing companies within the Druckhaus Mainfranken group – the production part of the flyeralarm group, based in Würzburg, Germany.
Ulrich said, “One of the companies I am responsible for was founded in 1849. We cannot imagine what massive changes this company and its employees has gone through during this very long period: new technologies, huge crises, wars, and much more. The printing industry had a lot of disruptions in the past and we see one such disruption during these difficult days of the pandemic. But, as always, these situations enable changes for the sector. So I am sure that by standing together and being well informed, the printing sector can create a lot of new possibilities out of the current crisis.”
Ulrich replaces Cees Verweij as President. Cees has been a key member of the Intergraf team for 12 years with 4-year tenure as President, and a further 8 years as Board Member and Vice-President. The knowledge, dedication and strong leadership of Cees has greatly enhanced Intergraf’s work.
Cees commented, “The office of Intergraf plays a crucial role in promoting print and safeguarding the industry from harmful legislation and I thank the team for their excellent cooperation with the Board. I am leaving Intergraf convinced that print will remain essential.”
Intergraf has also announced the new Vice-President Jesper Jungersen (DK). Jesper takes over this function from Ulrich Stetter (DE).
Moreover, the General Assembly approved the re-election of Ian Wilton (UK) and Giovanni Olivotto (IT) to the Board, as well as approving a new Board member: Katalin Orgován (HU). They join existing Board members: Dick Naafs (NL), Janina Bluma (LV), Kaarel Ausmes (EE), Ulrijk Wehtje (SE), and Wim Buyle from FTA Europe.
All existing Steering Committee members were re-approved by the General Assembly: Monica Scorzino (IT), Carmen Kulpe (DE), Katalin Peller (HU), Katre Savi (EE), Ravindra Parasnis (SE), Theresa Borba (PT), and Thomas Torp (DK).
