Gude Systems, a specialist in AV-focused power supply and monitoring solutions, has expanded its management team.

The company’s founder and chief excutive, Michael Gude, has appointed Andreas Böttcher as managing director of technology, and Philipp Gude as managing director of sales.

Böttcher has been with the company for more than 20 years and is responsible for Gude Systems’ product development. He has played a key role in shaping the expansion of the company’s product portfolio and has driven its technological development.

Philipp Gude, the son of the founder, joined the sales team three years ago, after working as a sales engineer for a large IT system house. He has realigned the company’s sales strategy and quickly made its products known in the AV market, boosting sales and expanding the company’s network in the US, Australia and EMEA region.

Michael Gude said: “With this double strike, the company has a lucky hit. Both colleagues have rendered outstanding services to the company with their professional competencies and visionary qualities, and have contributed significantly to the success of the business. They both bring exactly what a future-oriented company needs: first-class, reliable development and first-class, sympathetic sales. Gude Systems’ management is thus ideally positioned for the future, in terms of personnel and strategy.”
