Edelman names Cornelia Kunze as vice chairman, Asia Pacific

 

Kunze will be charged with developing the agency's consumer and brand planning offerings throughout the region. She will also focus on the Asia activities of Edelman’s current German-based clients, including BMW, Osram, BASF and TÜV SÜD. She will also support Robert Holdheim, managing director of Edelman India, which is expanding rapidly thanks to winning the business of Tata.  

 

Brain, who worked with Kunze for seven years in EMEA, called her a "great brands thinker" and one of the best leaders he has worked with.

A new chief executive officer for Edelman Germany has been appointed and will be announced later this month.
