Podcast with owner & chairman of the board Hans-Martin Schneeberger

Welcome to the new podcast of Schneeberger group. This time for the anniversary year, because the company will be 100 years old in 2023. On the occasion of the company's 100th anniversary, we talk today with the owner and Chairman of the Board of Directors, Hans-Martin Schneeberger, about the challenges of the current times. His grandfather founded the company in 1923 as a machine workshop during the crisis and faced the adversities of his time. In a personal interview, Hans-Martin Schneeberger explains how the company today manages to maintain its position and stay at the top in an environment of crises and tough competition, but also how he and the company became even stronger and more successful through failures. Other topics include succession planning and responsibility, as well as the will to persevere and the courage to change, because modern changes such as the Internet of Things, artificial intelligence and other challenges require courageous progress coupled with responsible entrepreneurial spirit. How he and the approximately 1400 employees worldwide are celebrating the company's 100th anniversary with their customers and what he is looking forward to is another point of discussion.

Hans-Martin Schneeberger was President of the European Association for Machine Tools and Manufacturing Industries, Cecimo, 2020-2021.
