Every since she finished her studies in Innovation and Strategic Management, Petra worked at the intersection of technology and business in manufacturing. In the cement, energy and metal industry she began with a focus on quality and LEAN management, quickly gaining broader and increased commercial and organizational responsibility. When she changed sides from being a Siemens customer to becoming part of Siemens, she started off with developing the business around the IT/OT convergence, “Digital Enterprise”, in Switzerland. Since the beginning of this year she leads the Siemens AG program to boost Digitalization at the Siemens plants around the world.
