Change of leadership at Impiric

In addition to a blood refreshment for the agency, he wants to "finally have a little more time for new ideas and also for life," says Jörg Rindlisbacher, CEO and CCO of Impiric, who is therefore stepping down as operational manager of his marketing agency at the end of 2001 and handing over the reins of Impiric Switzerland to the previous Managing Director Thomas Biedermann after 15 years. The change had been planned for some time at Hardturmstrasse 105. Rindlisbacher founded today's Impiric in 1987 under the name Promovico and later traded as Wunderman Cato Johnson. Today, Impiric is the Swiss branch of the world's largest provider of integrated marketing communications and customer relationship management services. Biedermann, as the new Managing Director, forms Impiric's new management team with Andi Albonico, Creative Director, and Eugen Brunner, Director Operations.
Rindlisbacher remains chairman of both Impiric and FutureCom. Together, the two companies employ more than 130 people and generate annual revenues of over CHF 20 million. (pan)
