Martin Weickenmeier

The chairman of the management board of Heidelberger Druckmaschinen AG, Bernhard Schreier, is the new drupa 2012 president and chairman of the Exhibitors’ Advisory Board. He replaces Martin Weickenmeier, managing director sales, marketing and service of Körber PaperLink GmbH. Due to the strategic reorientation of the Körber Group’s Paper Division, Weickenmeier is no longer able to manage the responsibilities as drupa president and has, therefore, resigned from his position. Weickenmeier has been head of the drupa executive committee since the last staging of the trade fair in 2008.

Hildemar Böhm, previously CEO of the GEA Mechanical Equipment Segment, has been appointed the new chairman of the management board of Körber PaperLink GmbH, and is consequently assuming overall responsibility for the Körber Group's Paper Division.
