After a good four years, it’s over: Gunter Erfurt, CEO of the solar company Meyer Burger, is leaving his position as CEO. The company, which is currently in a situation threatening its existence, made the surprise announcement on Wednesday. His successor is to be Franz Richter, who will now take over the chairmanship of the board of directors in addition to his role as chairman of the board of directors. It is the last chapter of an era that began promisingly but ended dismally: Erfurt, 51 years old, has resigned from his position of his own accord, said a spokeswoman. According to reports, there was, of course, considerable pressure from investors who are very dissatisfied with the development of the Swiss company.
