Lawo expands executive management board

Lawo has announced the expansion of its executive management board. Effective since 15 July 2019, Jamie Dunn now serves as Lawo’s chief commercial officer, and Phil Myers has been appointed chief technology officer.

Both are joining CFO and director of the executive board, Claudia Nowak, COO Ulrich Schnabl, CSCO Christian Lukic and CEO Philipp Lawo, who is still on medical leave.

Said Dunn, who joined the Lawo Group of companies back in 2011, and until recently was serving as head of global sales, a responsibility he still maintains: “This development reflects the continuous execution of our growth strategy and is a natural step in the evolution of our company’s structure. Building strong partnerships based on staying close and accessible has been a core value of the company since its foundation. My new role recognises the importance to maintain our customer focus as we continue to grow.”

Myers, who joined Lawo in 2018, was previously senior director IP Systems and chair of the company’s technical advisory board. He said: “Lawo has continually developed pioneering solutions that create competitive advantages for our customers worldwide. I look forward to driving the company’s technology strategy at board level, and ensuring that our heritage of engineering and manufacturing excellence continues.”

Lawo continues to deploy multiple IP-based video and audio infrastructure projects worldwide, with recent enterprise-scale installations at SIC in Portugal, NEP in the US, CBC in Canada as well as further 4k expansions at NEP Australia’s Andrews Hub.

“We further focus on the execution of our successful business strategy as an independent, 100% privately owned company,” added Nowak. “Our half-year commercial performance has been exceptional and as of now it looks like we are going to exceed our ambitious 2019 revenue goals.”
