Movie Monday: EMS@C-Level 2022 Season, episode 11 – Rainer Koppitz, CEO of KATEK SE

A few days after KATEK announced their Q2 2022 results, I caught up with their charming and erudite Co-founder and CEO, Rainer Koppitz. We started by exploring the recent results, and the challenges they and the industry faced in the first half of 2022. We also manged to cover predictions related to the supply chain, the developing relationships between OEMs and their electronic manufacturing partners, ongoing working capital demands, segment growth in e-mobility, renewables and tele-care, KATEK’s white label ‘Ghost Charger’ for EVs, their M&A strategy, and the importance of the Team Blue brand in attracting customers, partners and the all important talent needed to continue to grow the business. We ended chatting about their diversity targets and ambitions, all in just thirty minutes, luckily Rainer talks fast!
