Ninox brings in former Intel managing director as CEO
A new CFO joined the Berlin start-up Ninox in March, and now Jürgen Thiel is the new Managing Director. The start-up is expanding its management team in order to drive forward the expansion of its own business model.
Developing applications for your own company without any programming knowledge - that's what the start-up Ninox makes possible. The Berlin-based company has now appointed a new Managing Director, whose main task is to drive the growth and expansion of Ninox. Jürgen Thiel worked at Intel for 16 years, including as Managing Director of the German subsidiary. Most recently, he was responsible for Global Sales and Business Development at Paessler, a southern German IT monitoring specialist.
Since 2013, Ninox has been using a no-code model to support medium-sized companies with their digitalization. Customers in Germany include Siemens, Aboutyou and Thyssen Krupp. Generali and the National Basketball Association (NBA), for example, use Ninox's services worldwide. "I look forward to expanding this fast-growing business model even further in the future," says Thiel about his move.
Thiel also sees that companies need help with their digitalization: "Companies around the world are desperately looking for good solutions. Our approach of dramatically simplifying the creation of individual business applications with a 'no-code' model not only solves IT's problem of finding suitable specialists - we also enable specialist departments in companies of all types and sizes to move away from Excel spreadsheets and towards lean, automated processes."
It was only in March that Ninox recruited Daniel Kronberger as CFO, who has experience at Beiersdorf, Deutsche Beteiligungs AG and most recently at AOT, a manufacturer of medical technology. "More than 5,000 satisfied customers and strong growth over the last three years - with sales growth of more than 120% in 2020 - prove that Ninox is on the right track," says the man responsible for the figures at Ninox.
Founder Frank Böhmer is still on board and is responsible for the technical development of the platform.
