(Hamburg, 8 January 2018) A change to the Executive Board of Lotto24 AG (Lotto24.de) is imminent: Kai Hannemann, responsible for IT Strategy, IT Systems, IT Processes and IT Operation, as well as Process and Innovation Management, and the B2G (Business-to-Government) business field, will step down from the Executive Board on 31 January 2018 for personal reasons and has asked the Supervisory Board to prematurely terminate his service agreement. The Supervisory Board has agreed to his request with regret.
Kai Hannemann joined Lotto24 as CIO (Chief Information Officer) in February 2014 and was appointed to the Executive Board of Lotto24 AG in July 2016. Under his guidance, Lotto24 AG successfully completed the insourcing of its IT activities. He shaped the entire IT organisation and infrastructure, whose highly scalable technology enables the continued growth and ongoing expansion of the company’s product offerings.
Professor Willi Berchtold, Chairman of Lotto24’s Supervisory Board, states: “Over the past few years, Mr Hannemann has played a major role in establishing Lotto24 AG as a leading player in its industry – also with regard to its IT systems. We would like to thank him for his services and wish him all the best!”
Until a successor has been appointed, the IT departments will be headed on an interim basis by Petra von Strombeck, CEO of Lotto24 AG.
