3D printing company EOS has appointed Marie Langer as its new CEO.

This forms part of a larger restructure of company management, EOS says. Langer, daughter of founder Dr Hans J Langer, will reportedly focus on strategy, marketing, communications as well as corporate culture, organizational and people development.

‘From both a technological and an organizational perspective, EOS is optimally positioned for a successful future,’ said Langer. ‘My vision is that EOS stays at the cutting edge of industrial 3D printing technology and that the company makes a sustainable contribution towards solving the huge challenges facing us today. We want our technology to do more than driving economic growth. We want it to provide positive environmental and social benefits.’ 

MD Dr Adrian Keppler will focus on the development of strategic customer and partner relationships and will oversee the collaboration between EOS subsidiaries, EOS says, while MD Eric Paffrath, will continue to head up finance, business administration and information technology divisions, as well as other commercial areas.

Previous CTO Dr Tobias Abeln and co-chief operating officer Bertrand Humel van der Lee are leaving the company by mutual agreement, the company says.
