Following the stepping down of Andreas Gerstenmayer from his position as CEO of the Austrian technology company AT&S on Monday due to personal reasons, AT&S is launching a CEO search. In the coming months, an internal or external candidate is to be found to succeed Andreas Gerstenmayer who has been CEO of AT&S since February 2010.
“Under Andreas Gerstenmayer’s leadership, AT&S has succeeded in developing into a global technology leader in microelectronics over the past one and a half decades,” said the AT&S Supervisory Board in recognition of Gerstenmayer’s work. “During this time, AT&S has not only embarked on a successful course of growth, but has also worked with the most innovative companies in the global electronics industry and gained major technology companies as customers. The members of the Supervisory Board, who wish Andreas Gerstenmayer all the best for the future, would like to express their sincere thanks for this achievements.”
“I have managed AT&S for more than 14 years, experienced the ups and downs and initiated the growth phase. It is now time to place the management of the company in new hands,” says Andreas Gerstenmayer. “AT&S is well prepared for the future challenges in a difficult market environment for the entire technology industry, so it is a good time for the handover.”

It’s Only Common Sense: If You’re Not Differentiated, You’re Dead
10/13/2025 | Dan Beaulieu -- Column: It's Only Common Sense“Good enough” is not good enough in business. Not anymore. “Good enough” is a death sentence in today’s market. Too many companies hide behind their ISO certificates, ITAR registrations, and shiny badges of compliance as if those are supposed to impress customers, but certifications are table stakes.

It’s Only Common Sense: Pricing PCBs? It’s All in Their Heads
09/29/2025 | Dan Beaulieu -- Column: It's Only Common SenseLet’s talk about pricing—not the math, the spreadsheets, or the cost-plus formula your finance guy loves—but the actual game: perception. If you’re trying to win jobs by being the lowest bidder, you’re not competing; you’re commoditizing yourself. Once you do that, good luck climbing back up the value ladder. You’re no longer a partner; you’re a line item on a spreadsheet.
