Koenig & Bauer sharpens its focus on sustainability

With the establishment of a new department under the supervision of the new board spokesman Dr Andreas Pleßke, Koenig & Bauer is intensifying its sustainability activities.

Lena Landenberger will be responsible for investor relations at Koenig & Bauer

Employees (social responsibility), environment (ecological responsibility), governance, society, outreach, integrity, and compliance are the five pillars of the Koenig & Bauer sustainability concept. The concept was elaborated based on Agenda 2030 of the United Nations, whose 17 Global Goals aim to secure sustainable development on the economic, social, and ecological levels. 

Dr Bernd Heusinger, who has served Koenig & Bauer in various functions since 1999, will be assuming responsibility for the new sustainability remit alongside his current corporate office duties for the supervisory board. The area of investor relations, which falls under the mandate of chief financial officer Dr Stephen Kimmich, will be passed on to Lena Landenberger with effect from January 1, 2021.

After graduating with a degree in business law, Lena Landenberger began her career in the auditing division of Ernst & Young. Subsequently, she spent three years at ElringKlinger in the department for investor relations, business press, and corporate communication. She then moved to Heidelberger Druckmaschinen as investor relations manager in July 2011 and studied for a master’s in business law parallel to her work there.
