CIO of Drees & Sommer,
Germany
The partner-managed consulting firm Drees & Sommer SE is characterized by sustainable, innovative and economic solutions for the real estate, infrastructure and industry markets, advising on how to implement them – or even offering customers both from a single source. Founded in 1970 and known ever since as a sustainability pioneer and digitalization driver, the international company employs more than 6,000 people at 63 locations. Interdisciplinary teams are working on some 6,500 projects worldwide to create a future worth living and to reconcile apparent contradictions: tradition and future, economy and ecology, analog and digital, efficiency and well-being. As entrepreneurs within the enterprise, a personally responsible partnership stands for this.
