Leadership Change at Mitsubishi Electric

Ratingen, 15. April 2026 Mitsubishi Electric Europe B.V., German Branch, announces a change in its executive leadership: Mario Poltronieri assumed the position of President of the German Branch on April 1, 2026. He succeeds Andreas Wagner, who simultaneously took over the leadership of Mitsubishi Electric’s Italian Branch.

Mario Poltronieri previously served as President of the Italian Branch and brings extensive international management experience within the Mitsubishi Electric Group. Under his leadership, the Italian Branch has successfully advanced its strategic development and strengthened its position in key future-oriented markets. With his move to Germany, Mitsubishi Electric continues its focus on continuity and international integration within the European organization.

“I am very much looking forward to my new role in Germany – one of the most important markets for Mitsubishi Electric in Europe,” says Mario Poltronieri. “Together with our team, I aim to continue our growth trajectory, further expand our role as a technological pioneer, and provide our customers with innovative solutions for tomorrow’s challenges.”

Mitsubishi Electric Germany thus remains a key pillar of the European organization – with a focus on heating, cooling and air conditioning technology, automation, energy solutions, as well as semiconductor, mobility and building technologies.
