Christopher Delbr\u00fcck, currently Chief Financial Officer (CFO) of Uniper, will join the air mobility startup Lilium in We\u00dfling near Munich as its new CFO later this year. Lilium is working on a revolutionary solution for on-demand air taxi services.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Daniel Wiegand<\/strong>, co-founder and CEO of Lilium, says of the new addition:<\/p>\n

"We are delighted that, after intensive global research, we have now been able to recruit Christopher Delbr\u00fcck, a proven financial expert and a true heavyweight in this field, for Lilium. He is not only a first-class CFO with experience in managing large companies, but also possesses a strong entrepreneurial mindset in addition to his expertise. A quality that perfectly complements Lilium."<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Delbr\u00fcck played a key role in the IPO<\/h3>\n

In his role as CFO of Uniper SE, Delbr\u00fcck played a key role in the company's IPO in 2016 and the subsequent tripling of its stock price. Prior to that, he spent 14 years in various strategy, business development, and finance roles at the DAX 30 energy company E.on, and four years at the Boston Consulting Group.<\/p>\n

"In his current role, Christopher has impressively demonstrated his ability to drive growth for a company with nearly \u20ac80 billion in revenue while also committing to a lower-carbon future. We share the same ambitions. We look forward to working with him to further develop Lilium,"<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

says Wiegand.<\/p>\n

Lilium aims to be fully operational by 2025<\/h3>\n

Lilium<\/a> plans to manufacture and operate its own Lilium Jet, a revolutionary on-demand air taxi service. At the touch of a button, passengers will be able to use the Lilium app to find the nearest landing site and plan their trip easily and conveniently. Through a dense network of landing sites in cities and regions, passengers will benefit from flights comparable in price to a taxi but four times faster.<\/p>\n

The emission-free Lilium Jet, powered by 36 electric motors, can travel up to 300 kilometers in one hour on a single charge. Lilium expects to be fully operational in various cities around the world by 2025. Trial operations at several locations are expected to begin sooner.<\/p>\n

"The opportunity to revolutionize an industry comes only once in a generation. I am delighted to be joining Lilium at this point in the company's development,"<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

so Christopher Delbr\u00fcck<\/strong> about his commitment to Lilium.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe market will experience enormous growth\u201d<\/h3>\n

"The urban air mobility market will experience tremendous growth over the next decade. I am convinced that Lilium has both the team and the technology to sustainably benefit from this growth and become one of the world's leading technology companies. With this highly innovative technology and a scaling of the company's operations, we can help improve travel for people around the world while making real progress towards a more sustainable future."<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

explains the new man at the Munich mobility startup.<\/p>\n

In September 2017, Lilium secured a $90 million Series B funding round<\/a> , increasing its total capital to over $100 million. Investors include Tencent, LGT, Atomico, Obvious Ventures, and Freigeist.<\/p>\n

The exact date of Delbr\u00fcck\u2019s joining Lilium will be announced at a later date.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
