Christoph Glaus was responsible for the Esports & Gaming division of Red Bull Switzerland for over two years, Jon Baumann currently serves as President of the Swiss Esports Federation SESF.

The 36-year-old Glaus looks back on a varied career in communications, PR, consulting and project management. In his role at Red Bull, he built up the group's Esports & Gaming engagement in Switzerland from scratch. At Microsoft and Jung von Matt, he was able to gain additional experience in various industries and positions. At Stark, Glaus will dedicate himself to the further development of consulting as well as the support of new clients.

Baumann, 31, was most recently in charge of regional development & location promotion for the Oberaargau region. Previously, he was responsible for political advocacy and communications at a Swiss insurance company and then at the Swiss Media Publishers Association VSM. Baumann is responsible for the implementation of a fresh corporate communication for the 1337 Group and supports the individual brands in communicative matters.

The two newly created functions are intended to relieve the Group-wide management team around Michael Bieri and Dennis Andreas Nirtl and to further advance the professionalization of the divisions.
