Prior to joining market leader Suntech, Pawel Nowotny worked for the Berlin-based module producer Solon SE. Starting July 2009, Pawel was responsible for the worldwide marketing of Solon as their Director Corporate Marketing. Earlier he worked at Daimler AG for more than a decade in leading marketing positions including the lead of the product communication for the brands Mercedes Benz and Maybach.
"We are very pleased to have Pawel Nowotny, an experienced marketing expert with solid PV experience, join our growing team and to lead Suntechs European Marketing Communication team," said Vedat Guergeli, Vice President Sales and Marketing at Suntech Europe. "Pawel brings in extensive global marketing experience both in the B2B- and consumer market and will be responsible to realize Suntechs longterm brand-building targets in Europe."
Suntech has now centered the strategic capacities for the European market at their headquarters in Switzerland. Björn Emde, Communications Manager Europe at Suntech, moved from Suntech Deutschland GmbH in Germany to the European headquarters in Schaffhausen. His role as head of the European media and public relations as well as his responsibilities for Suntechs engagement with industry organizations and contacts to political decision makers are strengthened through the now even closer interaction with the European management.
Suntech is a member of many industry associations including the German Solar Industry Association BSW Solar, the British Photovoltaic Association (BPVA) and the European Photovoltaic Industry Association (EPIA).
