Jamie Dunn has been named the CEO of Lawo AG.
Dunn joined Lawo in 2011 and has served as Vorstand and deputy CEO since 2024.
“His long tenure with the company, deep market understanding and global experience form a strong foundation for the future,” the firm stated.
Philipp Lawo steps down from the Vorstand corporate board and joins its supervisory board.
“This move reflects Lawo’s commitment to strengthening corporate compliance by more clearly separating management and control functions across its governing bodies,” Lawo said in the announcement.
Lawo’s management board now consists of Jamie Dunn (CEO and Vorstand), Claus Gärtner (CFO and Vorstand), Andreas Hilmer (CMO), Christian Lukic (CSCO), Phil Myers (CTO) and Ulrich Schnabl (COO).
Michael Sonnabend, chairman of the supervisory board, said the change achieves a continuity in leadership.
“With his transition to the supervisory board, Philipp Lawo will continue supporting Lawo’s development and ensuring that the values of the Lawo family remain at the heart of the company’s culture,” it stated. “As the sole ‘Vorstand’ of Lawo Holding AG, he will be responsible for the strategic direction of the entire Lawo Group, reinforcing the focus on long-term stability and sustainable growth.”
Headquartered in Germany, Lawo’s business markets include broadcast television and radio, performing arts, houses of worship and professional AV. It was founded in 1970 by Peter Lawo.
