Alphaform AG appointed Götz Ganghofer, an industry and business expert as it's new supervisory board member. The previous chairman of the supervisory board, Matti Paasila, had stepped down for family reasons. Paasila had been on the supervisory board since 2008 and it's chairman since 2009.

The supervisory board elected Ganghofer as the chairman of the supervisory board on January 28, 2015. As part of the current restructuring, Ganghofer had recently fortified it's finance department as an interim manager from January to September 2014, and therefore knows both the company and the industry from his own experience.
