Carmen Berger will take over as Director of MEDICA and COMPAMED in Düsseldorf, the leading international industry platforms for the medical technology industry and its suppliers, from 1 October 2025. This means that, in addition to project control and leadership of the project team, she will be responsible for the global strategic positioning and marketing of both trade fair brands. Carmen Berger succeeds Christian Grosser, who left Messe Düsseldorf at the end of May. In her role, she and her project team will be housed within the operative division of Marius Berlemann, Chief Operating Officer, and will be reporting directly to Michael Degen, Executive Director Trade Fairs.
"Having performed a variety of professional roles in international corporate consulting, most recently as Head of Life Sciences, Carmen Berger unites leadership competence with strategic and conceptual expertise. She therefore has the right qualifications to successfully lead a motivated project team in a dynamic environment and further develop the most important events for the entire medical technology value chain, which attract several thousand exhibitors and trade visitors from around 150 countries," Marius Berlemann is assured.
