House of Winterthur seeks new managing director
A major change is on the horizon at the House of Winterthur location marketing organisation. Samuel Roth, who was the driving force behind the realignment and upswing of the organisation, will be leaving his position as Managing Director on 1 August 2024 to pursue new professional challenges.
Since taking office in August 2020, Roth has significantly developed the organisation with fresh approaches and an increased presence on social media. Under his leadership, House of Winterthur has established itself as a dynamic regional networking platform that sets the tone with innovative event formats such as tech lunches, the Smart Health series and House cultural evenings. Roth’s commitment to expanding digital communication channels has also significantly increased visibility and engagement for the Winterthur region.
The search for Roth’s successor is being led by a specially established nomination committee, which has the challenging task of finding a person who will continue Roth’s successful work and lead House of Winterthur into the future. Beat Schwab, President of House of Winterthur, recognises Roth as a visionary and committed leader whose work has sparked enthusiasm for the region in many people.
With Roth’s imminent departure, House of Winterthur is not only losing an innovative designer, but also a managing director who has made a significant contribution to the modernisation and success of the location marketing organisation. At the same time, the forthcoming replacement offers the opportunity to build on the solid foundations and actively shape the future of House of Winterthur.
