Electronics K.K. in Yokohama.
Personnel
Garbsen (euro adhoc) - Garbsen, 1st February 2013 - In the electronics industry,
the Japanese market is considered to be technological leader and especially
demanding. Two years ago LPKF employee Torsten Nagel organized the sales and
service office in Yokohama to be directly on the spot of this important market.
Now he will return to the LPKF headquarters in Germany.
His successor Bernd Strauss has wide expert knowledge in mechanical engineering.
He has been living in Japan for more than 10 years where his last position was
regional manager for an American tool manufacturer.
Strauss is now looking forward to his new challenge at LPKF: "It is my intention
to further extend the team in Japan and to establish LPKF as a reliable partner
for the Japanese electronics industry."
