Change of leadership in the hotel industry group in the Tyrolean Chamber of Commerce: At the beginning of May, the previous chairman Mario Gerber hands over the leadership to the Pitztal entrepreneur and chairman of the tourism schools in Villa Blanka, Franz Staggl. Gerber, who would like to focus more on state politics, is also retiring as deputy chairman of the Association of the Hotel Industry of the Austrian Economic Chamber.
Gerber, since November 2021 chairman of the Innsbruck Tourist Board and its holiday villages, sees his departure as a “strengthening of advocacy”: “Tyrolean tourism is not a one-man show. In challenging times like these, it only makes sense to spread responsibility across several shoulders. I am pleased that we have been able to win an experienced hotelier and entrepreneur in Franz Staggl,” said Gerber in a broadcast on Thursday will do everything in my power to support the concerns of the Tyrolean hotel industry in state politics.” In addition to being the chairman in Tyrol, Gerber will also step down as deputy chairman of the Association of the Hotel Industry of the Austrian Chamber of Commerce.
