Economic reception in Gmunden: Sigrid Schuster replaces Robert Oberfrank

gmunden. In the recent economic reception, which was organized by WKO Gmunden-Chair Martin Ettinger, over 300 participants from various areas of business, politics and administration were present. This event offered the ideal framework for a significant change of personnel at the head of the Gmunden district office. After 30 years at the top, Robert Oberfrank handed over the management of the district office to his successor Sigrid Schuster.

Sigrid Schuster, who is known as an educational expert, was previously the head of the career center of the Chamber of Commerce and has headed numerous initiatives in the field of education. Projects such as the Talent Space in Linz, the future planner "I will", the potential analysis and the trade fair "Youth and Profession" are talking. She will now be the contact person for over 7,200 members in the Gmunden district and bring her experiences and ideas into the new role.

valuable contributions by Robert Oberfrank

With this reception, Robert Oberfrank took the opportunity to look back on his long and successful professional career. His outstanding services include the new WKO Gmunden construction as well as the establishment of technology centers and company construction areas, which are of great importance for the business location. Under his leadership, the WiFi in the district developed into a leading adult education institute with more than 6,000 participants annually and over 600 courses offered.

"I thank Robert Oberfrank for his invaluable contribution to the economy in Gmunden. He was an engine of many initiatives and has a significant advancement," said WKO President Doris Hummer. She wished Sigrid Schuster a lot of energy and confidence for the new challenges that lie in front of her. In addition, Oberfrank will continue to work as the department head of the district offices in Upper Austria until the middle of next year, which is a relief for Hummer.

With the change at the head of the WKO Gmunden, the organization now faces new challenges, but also with fresh possibilities. Schuster is ready to support the members of the chamber with her knowledge and passion and to design the next steps in the field of education and in economic development.
