New leadership for Messe München

Messe München is planning to reshape its Board of Management. The company’s shareholders unanimously decided at a recent meeting to appoint Reinhard Pfeiffer and Stefan Rummel as the co-heads of Messe München. As of July 1, 2022, both executives will oversee the business operations of Messe München as sole and equal Managing Directors. At this point Klaus Dittrich, the current Chairman of the Board of Management, will leave the company as planned.

Reinhard Pfeiffer (58) has been a member of the Board of Management of Messe München since 2008 and has served as Deputy CEO since 2014. Stefan Rummel (44) has held a managerial position at Messe München since 2010 and became a member of the Board of Management of Messe München in 2015. Both executives already oversee an extensive share of Messe München’s portfolio.

Klaus Dittrich will retire in mid-2022 after spending more than 20 years at the company. He joined the Board of Management in 2002 and became CEO at the beginning of 2010.
The primary owners of Messe München are the state of Bavaria and the Bavarian state capital of Munich. Other owners are the Chamber of Industry and Commerce for Munich and Upper Bavaria, and the Chamber of Trade for Munich and Upper Bavaria.
