d&b audiotechnik has appointed Markus Zimehl as Commercial Director for the DACH region, effective August 1, 2025.
In this key role, he will drive growth in the important and strategic DACH region (Germany, Austria, Switzerland) by shaping new go-to-market models, developing partner programs, and strengthening team structures.
With more than a decade of experience in the professional audio industry, Zimehl brings a proven track record of success in strategic leadership and market expansion. Until recently, Zimehl served as Area Director for DACH and Northern Europe at the event technology company Adam Hall, where he oversaw ten sales regions across DACH, Benelux, and Scandinavia. Previously, he led internal sales and international export departments and has hands-on experience in music retail and as a FoH engineer.
For me, d&b is the absolute benchmark in sound, whether at a large festival or in a restaurant. You always get excellent audio with even coverage in every corner of the room. My impression has always been that d&b has come a long way and continues to push boundaries, especially with its immersive solutions such as d&b Soundscape, which prove that stereo doesn’t have the final word in live sound. I’m very much looking forward to working with the highly motivated and experienced DACH team to move forward together, said Markus Zimehl.
“Markus’s addition to our DACH team in this key position is essential for the continued development of the region”, added Christian Orcin, Territory Director EMEA at d&b audiotechnik. “With his industry and leadership experience, we are better positioned to support our partner network and seize new market opportunities. Along with the ongoing dedication of the DACH team, I am confident that we will build on our momentum and achieve even greater growth”.
