Qvest founder Peter Nöthen is leaving his role as CEO at the end of the year and has already paused his management responsibilities.
He will remain a minority shareholder, according to the German media technology service provider. The name of his designated successor will be announced shortly.
Nöthen played a pivotal role in shaping Qvest. As founder, he guided the company’s transformation from a local brand to an internationally operating group through organic growth and strategic acquisitions. Under his leadership, Qvest established itself as a global leader in innovative technology solutions across the digital media supply chain. Since 2016, Qvest has been part of the RSBG SE portfolio.
Following years of international expansion, the new CEO will be tasked with further integrating the group and ensuring continued profitable growth.
Subject to approval by the shareholders’ meeting, a new CEO is to take over the management of Qvest from the first quarter of 2026 and also assume management responsibilities at RSBG ICT, the majority shareholder of Qvest Group.
“We are pleased to welcome an experienced executive with deep knowledge of Qvest’s relevant markets as our new CEO,” said Markus Bohni, CEO of RSBG. “We also thank Peter Nöthen for his dedication over the past years.”
The existing management team remains in place, ensuring continuity and providing experienced leadership as the company continues its transformation.
