Veridos GmbH, a joint venture of the Giesecke+Devrient (G+D) security group and the Bundesdruckerei Group, announced changes in the management team. Veridos CEO Andreas Räschmeier will leave the company at his own request. His successor Marc-Julian Siewert will lead Veridos as CEO from Jan. 1, 2022.
Following his two-year tenure as Veridos CEO, Räschmeier will pursue new opportunities outside of Giesecke+Devrient. In his role he made significant contributions to the growth and transfor-mation of Veridos into a leading provider of integrated identity solutions. Today, governments and public authorities in more than 100 countries rely on the company's project expertise and portfolio.
With the appointment of Siewert, the company will continue on its successful transformation course. Siewert, who joined G+D in 2013, is an experienced manager and highly acquainted with Veridos’ government business. In the past he held various management positions at G+D, current-ly working as COO of Veridos.
“We are very grateful for Andreas Räschmeier’s leadership of Veridos and its people during an unprecedented and critical time of the company’s development,” said Ralf Wintergerst, Group CEO and chairman of the management board of Giesecke+Devrient. “With Marc-Julian Siewert we have the right successor in order to continue on Veridos’ successful strategic path and further focus on developing our customer proximity worldwide.”
“We are pleased that with the previous COO Marc-Julian Siewert, Veridos has found a successor from within its own ranks who has already substantially contributed to the development of the company,” said Dr. Stefan Hofschen, CEO of Bundesdruckerei Group.
