Niels Stenfeldt takes on EMEA responsibilities at Esko

Stenfeldt joined Esko in May, as reported here, with responsibility for global brand sales. Effective September 1, he has also assumed the role previously held by Gougay, who will remain with Esko until the end of the year to ensure a seamless transition.

Stenfeldt has a broad background in business development strategies across the EMEA region, and said: ‘I look forward to helping expand the business even further. I am especially looking forward to working directly with both brand owners and converters as well as premedia and tradeshops to help them address the many challenges they face in the market today.’

‘We are extremely grateful for the critical role Armand has played in the success and growth of Esko over the years,’ added Udo Panenka, Esko president. ‘We wish him the best in his retirement. Although his shoes will be hard to fill, we are confident that Niels will bring the strong leadership and commercial expertise helping our organization to continue our growth path into the future.’
