“I have been working with Lars Schilling on significant business transformation projects for a number of years on the part of FOSTEC. I am very pleased that we were able to win him over and that together we can sustainably drive Digilents’ growth path. After the extremely successful years 2021 and 2022, in which we were able to support many well-known clients in filling their strategic positions in the e-commerce and digital environment, we want to expand our market position in the area of digitalization and e-commerce to executive search in 2023, in order to also become the first point of contact for filling C-level positions within the digital economy in the DACH region.
