Chairman of the iGW at the BDI

On 12 March 2025, Christian O. Erbe assumed the position of Chairman of the Committee for the Industrial Healthcare Economy at the Federation of German Industries (BDI).

The Federation of German Industries (BDI) is the leading association representing German industry. It advocates for the interests of 39 sector associations and over 100,000 companies, employing around 8 million people.

The Committee for Industrial Healthcare Economy within the BDI is dedicated to strengthening and further developing the industrial healthcare sector (iGW) as a key industry in Germany. Among its core tasks is promoting dialogue between politics, science, and business to develop health policy and economic strategies. These goals are particularly important in light of the government's restructuring following the snap elections in February this year.

The new position of our CEO brings clear advantages for our customers: The association’s work focuses on improving framework conditions, fostering innovation, and strengthening the healthcare industry. Especially in times of political and economic change, this contributes to stability, growth, and reliable partnerships within the sector. This is reflected in secure supply chains, high-quality products, and ultimately the best standards in the operating room.
