NFON AG’s Supervisory Board have made some changes to the company’s management: Andreas Wesselmann is to take over as Chairman of the Management Board, and takes on the title of Chief Executive Officer (CEO), and Alexander Beck joins the Management Board as the new Chief Financial Officer (CFO), both positions effective 1 October 2025.
As CFO, Alexander Beck will be responsible for the company’s financial strategy and, together with Andreas Wesselmann, will advance NFON’s successful development and growth.
“With this reorganisation, we are laying the foundation for the next phase of NFON’s growth,” comments Rainer Koppitz, Chairman of the Supervisory Board. Koppitz continues:
“We would like to thank Patrik Heider for his significant contribution to our company’s successful development. At the same time, we are delighted that Andreas Wesselmann, an experienced and visionary manager, is assuming overall responsibility and combining strategic vision with technological excellence. With Alexander Beck, we are also expanding the Management Board team to include an internationally experienced financial manager who will secure and drive sustainable growth and investment strength in the long term.”
Patrik Heider, who holds the position of CEO and CFO until 30 September 2025, and who has been recognised for his positive contributions on the recent company growth, is leaving to pursue new professional challenges.
In his new role as CEO, Andreas Wesselmann will assume responsibility for the company’s strategic direction, sales and marketing areas. By bringing together product, technology and market responsibility, innovations will now be aligned even more closely with customer needs and scaled up rapidly. Andreas Wesselmann’s contract has been extended until 2030, to provide stability and traction for new innovation.
Andreas Wesselmann notes: “I’m very pleased by the trust that has been placed in me and I’m looking forward to working closely with Alexander Beck. Together, we will continue to expand our innovative capabilities, tap new market opportunities and firmly establish NFON as the leading European provider of AI based business communications. To this end, we will continue to consistently implement the NFON Next 2027 corporate strategy.”
With Alexander Beck, NFON has recruited a proven finance and management expert to the Management Board. He has held many years of experience as CFO and managing director, as well as gained international expertise in various business sectors. His career has included senior management roles in retail at MediaMarktSaturn, in the software industry at Nemetschek and most recently in the bicycle industry at the Accell Group
