Stephanie Kiener succeeds Jasmina Ritz at Limmatstadt AG
Stephanie Kiener will take over the operational management of Limmatstadt AG in August. She succeeds Jasmina Ritz, who will withdraw from operational activities at the end of the year. Kiener looks forward to shaping regional development with innovative approaches.
The Limmatstadt AG location promotion organisation is getting a new managing director in Stephanie Kiener. According to a press release, Kiener will take over the operational management of the Limmatstadt regional location promotion office based at the JED in Schlieren ZH in August. The successor to Jasmina Ritz at Limmatstadt AG has thus been decided. Ritz will oversee the transition process until the end of the year and will then retire from operational activities. She will continue to fulfil her role as Vice President of the Board of Directors.
Stephanie Kiener joined Limmatstadt AG in November 2023. She had previously worked for the city of Baden for eight years, where she held various positions in location marketing, including Head of Tourism. She actively supported the separation of the city’s tourism division into the new public-private partnership TourismusRegion Baden AG, of which she was most recently Deputy Managing Director. Kiener knows the Limmat Valley inside out. She was born in Schlieren.
“The opportunity to work together with stakeholders from the entire region and the Board of Directors to shape regional location promotion in a future-oriented way is a great motivation for me,” Kiener is quoted as saying. She is counting on “taking this path together and further strengthening the Aargau and Zurich Limmat Valley region with innovative approaches, fresh ideas and combined forces”.
“Stephanie Kiener is our preferred candidate. We are now ideally positioned for the transformation process that has already begun,” said Lara Albanesi, President of the Board of Directors.
A public dialogue event will take place on Tuesday, 4 June, from 7.30 to 9 a.m. at the LAB coworking office in Spreitenbach.
