Iwan Bitschin becomes Head of MarKom Saas-Fee/Saas Valley
Iwan Bitschin, 29, from Saas-Fee, will take over as head of the Marketing and Communications division effective December 1.
The Saas-Fee/Saas Valley Tourism Organization is setting the course for the future: 29-year-old Iwan Bitschin from Saas-Fee will take over as Head of Marketing and Communication on 1 December 2025. He succeeds Mattia Storni, who has shaped the position over the past six years with great commitment and strategic foresight.
With Iwan Bitschin, the tourism organization is gaining a locally anchored and excellently trained personality. Born in Saas, he holds a Bachelor's degree in industrial engineering from Bern University of Applied Sciences and a Master's degree in innovation management and entrepreneurship from Munich Business School.
After completing his studies, Bitschin initially worked as an innovation consultant in Munich. He then took on the role of Technical Business Manager at agap2 Switzerland in Zurich, where he led a team of around 15 consultants, managed client relationships and developed new business opportunities.
Iwan Bitschin has been working as Product and Sales Manager at Saastal Tourismus AG since November 2024. He also impressed last year with his dedicated involvement in the organizing committee of the Swiss Snow Happening, where he made a significant contribution to the successful staging of the event.
Konstantin Bumann, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Saastal Tourismus AG, is delighted: "With Iwan, we are gaining a creative mind with management experience, strategic thinking and close ties to the region. At the same time, we would like to thank Mattia Storni warmly for his many years of commitment, his structured work and his signature style, which remains noticeable in numerous projects."
With this personnel decision, the Board of Directors of Saastal Tourismus AG is consistently pursuing its chosen path of recruiting and promoting local talent with sound training and offering them development opportunities within the company. This not only strengthens the regional roots, but also the future viability of the tourism organization.
