He is expected to create the financial conditions for the successful implementation of the company's strategy, which includes investments in infrastructure amounting to FRanken 1 billion in the coming years.

André Krause was significantly involved in the LTE auction in Germany and thus brings great experience in the field of acquisition and integration of companies, Sunrise added. Krause gained his strategic experience in the telecommunications industry from 2004 to 2006 as Vice President Strategy & Consulting at Telefonica O2 Germany. Prior to that, the 41-year-old business economist worked for the international management consultancy McKinsey, where he was in charge of various telecommunications, IT and Internet projects on a mandate basis.
