Updated: Nov 21, 2022

Converto AG, the marketing technology innovator from Schwyz, is getting reinforcements for its European expansion.


When a company proliferates and is successful, structures, tasks and employees change. If you are a founder, owner, CEO, sales and NewBiz manager in this successful setting, then you know as a professional when the time has come to focus. Matteo's strength lies in sensing the momentum for decisions and taking action.

With the CEO role, Matteo hands over the operational management to Kim Engels so that Converto's day-to-day business gets a real driving force and products can be maintained, further developed and new solutions launched for Converto's customers with great strength. Kim's marketing success, expertise and many years of experience in customer service, market consulting and business management complement Matteo's strengths perfectly.

Both will collaborate on critical strategic topics for Converto, with individual focus areas. As Chairman of the Board of Directors and expert for the core business, Matteo will strategically accompany the overall development of Converto and, simultaneously, have a constructive critical exchange for the company management with Kim as Managing Director. Both will also ensure that Converto's unique selling points remain strong against global competitors.
