The members of the Logistics Cluster Swabia (LCS) e. V. elected their new board. During the constitutive meeting, the tasks were distributed: Dr. Julia Boppert takes over as chair of the eight-member board of the Logistics Cluster Swabia e. V. At the 12th general meeting at Grieshaber Logistik in Weingarten, 32 out of currently 84 member companies were represented.
(Augsburg/Weingarten) The board elections took place online in advance with a turnout of over two-thirds. New members of the board are Carsten Wachtendorf (AIS alfaplan GmbH), Peter Wachinger (Oskar Schunck GmbH), Simon Pflüger (IHK Ulm), Julia Boppert (trilogIQa), and Johannes Birzele (Dachser SE). Jochen Wild (Max Wild GmbH), Peter Stöferle (IHK Schwaben), and Ralph Ehmann (IWL AG) continue their board work.
At the constitutive meeting on July 25, 2023, the committee elected Julia Boppert as chair. The board team has focused on the topics of digitization, skilled labor shortages, and the resilience of supply chains in the association’s work. The focus is on AI and automation, as well as initiating suitable collaborations between companies and startups.
The board aims to strengthen the logistics location of Swabia through targeted activities and better network all stakeholders along the supply chain. An analysis of opportunities and challenges, as well as risks, is intended to lead to suitable measures.
The first major working session of the voluntary board is planned for September 14, 2023. Chairwoman Julia Boppert: “As a board team, we are determined to actively support the ongoing opportunity process with commitment but also with a sense of proportion. We will specify our ideas and define initial steps to network as many companies in the association as possible.”
Balanced Mix from Various Areas of Logistics
The board bid farewell to Petra Engstler-Karrasch, Karen Klement, Ulrich Gruber, and Petra Straub. Christian Schulz continues his work as auditor together with Jürgen Fink, who succeeds Christian Schober. Managing Director Ingrid Eibner: “Our new board team is a balanced mix from various areas of logistics. It reflects the structure of our association members and unites a variety of experiences, skills, and perspectives. We are thus well positioned to strengthen logistics in the Swabia region.”
