Patrick Fischbacher moves from IBM to Proventx
Proventx is stepping up its sales and marketing activities and has brought an experienced sales professional on board. Patrick Fischbacher assumed the role of Head of Sales and Marketing on September 1, 2017, and will become the new CEO of Proventx effective January 1, 2018.
Patrick Fischbacher has taken over responsibility for Marketing & Sales at Proventx. After a short induction period, he will also be responsible for management as of 01.01.2018. In addition to a broad network, he has many years of experience in the IT industry: After his years of teaching and traveling in Zurich, the 51-year-old from the Rhine Valley is returning to eastern Switzerland. The business administration graduate (lic. oec. HSG) began his career as a department head in Controlling at Sony, before moving on to Hewlett Packard, Lotus SW Development and IBM, where he held various management positions and was most recently responsible for the SME business.
Fischbacher will further expand the product portfolio and market activities and focus Proventx even more strongly on its role as a system and cloud integrator in the context of increasing digitalization. He takes over the management of the company from Hans Nagel, who took over Proventx (formerly F+L System) together with his business partner Gregor Stücheli and integrated it into Esentica Holding. Hans Nagel will remain Chairman of the Board of Directors of Proventx and will return to his position as Managing Partner of Inventx, which is also part of Esentica Holding.
