New management for Köln Messe Schweiz
After 35 years of trade show excitement with Linda Oswald, Kerstin Walser and Barbara Rinderknecht have now taken over as Koelnmesse's representatives for Switzerland and Liechtenstein.
Kerstin Walser and Barbara Rinderknecht know their way around trade fairs, events, PR and marketing and are networked in the international market. They have already been working as Koelnmesse representatives since mid-2016.
In the future, you will not only be responsible for selling the Cologne events to visitors, exhibitors and partners. You will also be responsible for sales of the worldwide events.
Predecessor Linda Oswald leaves big footprints for her two successors. Since its start in 1983, when Franz Josef Strauss brokered a billion-euro loan to the GDR with the guarantee of the German government and Udo Lindenberg wrote his song "Sonderzug nach Pankow" (Special Train to Pankow), a quarter more exhibitors from Switzerland have come to Cologne today. There has also been an enormous increase in the number of trade visitors: The number of guests has risen by 122 percent since 1983.
