Starting from 4th March 2024, Cornelia Tietz will be in charge of the European Printing Ink Association (EuPIA) to keep consolidating its global position.
The European Printing Ink Association (EuPIA) has appointed Cornelia Tietz as its new Director, succeeding to Martin Kanert.
"It is a great honour and for sure a challenge to take over from Martin Kanert who has been the driving force of EuPIA for so many years. I am truly looking forward to embark on this new and exciting journey together with the EuPIA members and the CEPE team,” has declared Cornelia Tietz, the newly-elected Director of EuPIA.
Cornelia Tietz holds two master's degrees in humanities and has almost 20 years of experience in the industry, where she held several management positions for major multinational companies.
“I am proud to have helped EuPIA develop into what it is today. It goes without saying that this has only been possible with the substantial support and dedication of the many people engaged in EuPIA’s committees, working groups and task forces. And I am happy that with Cornelia, the EuPIA Council has found such an experienced and knowledgeable successor,” has added Martin Kanert, former Director of EuPIA.
“In the current revision of so many EU regulations relevant to our industry, a dynamic and well structures trade association is of benefit to its members, and we will continue to contribute under the lead of the Director to give an answer to societal questions. I would personally like to thank Martin for two decades of leadership and at the same time extend a warm welcome to Cornelia who will help and support us through a transition into a sustainable future,” has concluded Mehran Yazdani, EuPIA’s Chairman.
