Since the company has been undergoing an extensive structural reorganization, to form the basis for accelerated international growth, the introduction of Ingo Middelmenne on the newly created position of Head of Investor Relations shall now also lay the foundation for an integrated and sustainable corporate communication. Following his university degree, Ingo Middelmenne started his career in the investment banking division of British bank HSBC as Equity Research Analyst and later as Equity Sales Manager. After senior positions in investor relations for two index companies, he founded Middelmenne & Cie. in 2007, a consultancy firm, based in Munich, specializing in interim management for investor relations and capital market transactions.

"In the past months we have fundamentally improved the structures of Matica again to prepare the group for its future growth", Sandro Camillieri, CEO of Matica Technologies AG, comments on the personnel decision. "Now it is key to communicate on this very promising path as transparent as possible. With Mr. Middelmenne as experienced Manger on board, we will adequately reposition our company in the capital markets in the 12 to 18 months ahead and noticeably increase our number of investor contacts." Besides an improved perception in the capital markets, the increased investor relations activities are also aimed at a potential switch into a stock market segment with higher transparency standards.
