Two new Supervisory Board members were elected at Annual General Meeting of GEA Group Aktiengesellschaft: Jörg Kampmeyer, Managing Partner of Gebr. Knauf KG, and Dr. Jens Riedl, Investment Partner at Groupe Bruxelles Lambert (GBL). GEA has also applied to the district court for the appointment of Nancy Böhning as a new employee representative.

Jörg Kampmeyer (53) has been a court-appointed member of the Supervisory Board since January 1, 2022, following the resignation of Dr. Molly P. Zhang as of December 31, 2021. With his election by the Annual General Meeting, Jörg Kampmeyer's Supervisory Board mandate as a shareholder representative has now been confirmed until the 2025 Annual General Meeting. Dr. Jens Riedl (48) joins the Supervisory Board for the first time following his election today.

He succeeds Colin Hall, who resigned his mandate as of the end of the 2022 Annual General Meeting. Dr. Jens Riedl represents the shareholders on the Supervisory Board. Prior to joining GBL in early 2022, Cologne-born Riedl was a Partner at private equity firm Permira, where he headed its global Industrials and Business Services sector.

Previously, he had spent 19 years at Boston Consulting Group, where he held various positions and was most recently a Senior Partner.
