Harald Kröger departs Bosch Mobility, Markus Heyn steps up

Bosch has made fresh board of management changes that alter the personnel in charge of the Mobility division, including Bosch eBike Systems.

Harald Kröger (54), the board of management member responsible for systems integration in the Bosch Mobility Solutions business sector and for the Cross Domain Computing Solutions, Chassis Systems Control, Automotive Electronics, Bosch eBike Systems, and Automotive Steering divisions, as well as the Two Wheeler & Powersports business unit, will, at his own request, be leaving the board of management of Robert Bosch GmbH effective December 31, 2021.

Effective January 1, 2022, his responsibilities will be assumed by Dr. Markus Heyn (pictured), member of the board of management of Robert Bosch GmbH, in his new role as chairman of the Mobility Solutions business sector.

Volkmar Denner said: “Harald Kroeger was the driving force behind many developments of future importance, such as the setup of the pioneering Cross-Domain Computing Solutions division and the expansion of our semiconductor business. He set a successful course for the business operations for which he was responsible, even in challenging market conditions.”

Franz Fehrenbach said: “We regret Harald Kroeger’s decision and wish him all the very best for the future. His very inspirational leadership combined with his unique ability to promote the right people earned him a lot of esteem among his associates.”

Recently, head of Bosch eBike Systems Claus Fleischer sat down with CI.N to discuss the state of play for the electric bike industry, covering subjects such as political will’s influence on cycling growth and shortages in the cycling supply chain.
