AV Stumpfl named Richard Baldinger managing director of its US subsidiary Wednesday. Baldinger will now oversee the company’s U.S. office operations and sales at locations such as Atlanta, Georgia, and Santa Monica, California, and work to ensure success in surrounding markets.

With a background of extensive national and international leadership experience and facilitation of company growth and success, AV Stumpfl says Baldinger will uniquely and positively impact the company’s mission to build and maintain a “customer-centric” organization.

In his previous role, Baldinger worked as the director of sales and marketing at Fronius, U.S.A, where he gained professional experience in sales, marketing and product management, as well as led the U.S. solar energy business unit. AV Stumpfl hopes this experience will translate well to the company’s aims.

While working toward receiving his MBA, Baldinger also managed a variety of projects at the Ars Electronica Center in Linz, Austria, and organized events across venues.

Baldinger said he looks forward to the opportunity to manage the U.S. offices and grow the company’s success in U.S. markets at AV Stumpfl.

“AV Stumpfl has a remarkable legacy of innovation and engineering excellence,” Baldinger said. “I’m excited to help bring that story to a wider US audience and to work with our partners and customers to make the next phase of growth truly exceptional. With a great team and innovative products, we have a great foundation for our future success.”
