Change in leadership at GAF AG – Dr Gernot Ramminger named new Managing Director

GAF has been a global provider in the fields of earth observation, geodata, services and consulting since 1985. Dr Ramminger has held senior positions at GAF for many years and takes over from Dr Sebastian Carl, who held the position as Managing Director since 2018.

Dr Gernot Ramminger is succeeding Dr Sebastian Carl as the Managing Director of GAF AG. In his previous position of Chief Technical Officer (CTO), Dr Ramminger had already been a member of the GAF management team since 2018, always working in close cooperation with the previous Managing Director, Dr Carl. For this change, GAF is pursuing the successful combination of continuity together with fresh ideas and innovation.

With over 20 years of experience in the field of commercial earth observation and many years in the position of CTO, Dr Ramminger has comprehensive knowledge of the company and the market in which it is active. This ensures not only a seamless change of management, but also enables even greater focus going forwards on innovative data and information products in combination with technologies such as artificial intelligence and cloud computing. Digital innovations and the provision of highly automated geodata products and services will therefore play an even greater role at GAF in the future.
