CEKAtec AG with new management – experience, continuity and clear direction for the future

Effective July 1, 2025, Michael Ruhstaller will take over as Managing Director of CEKAtec AG. He has served as Head of Sales and a member of the Executive Board since 2020 and brings many years of experience in customer service and product development. Together with Christian Schultheiss (Head of Engineering) and Andres Rubin (Head of Supply Chain), he forms the new Executive Board.

Marco Pfister's responsibilities will be redistributed within the management team. The operational organization and your usual contacts will remain the same across all areas.

Marco Pfister has held a management position at CEKAtec AG since 2014. Milestones in his career included the merger of CEKAtec with Econovis in 2014, which enabled us to expand our electronics development division. Upon taking over as CEO in 2017, Marco also played a key role in establishing our China location and, together with his management team and you, successfully implemented numerous projects.

The Board of Directors and Management deeply regret his departure, thank Marco Pfister for his great services and wish him all the best and much success in his future endeavours.
