Markus Stangl Takes on New Leadership Role at EBCONT

Markus Stangl takes on expanded responsibilities at EBCONT as Group Managing Director. In an interview with Leitbetriebe Austria, he shares insights into his new role, the future of IT, and the meaningful use of AI.

We warmly congratulate Markus Stangl on his new role as Group Managing Director of EBCONT! In addition to his current position as COO, he will take on greater responsibility for the strategic and organizational development of our company.

New Perspectives and a Clear Vision

To mark this occasion, we would also like to highlight a recent interview with Leitbetriebe Austria, in which Markus shares valuable insights into his new role and his perspectives on the future of IT.

He discusses the challenges and opportunities of a rapidly evolving technological landscape and how companies can actively shape this transformation. The focus is on forward-thinking approaches, sustainable innovation, and the ambition to go beyond simply keeping pace with technological developments to create real value for customers and businesses.

AI That Creates Value: It's Not About the Technology, but the Goal

At the heart of the interview is a statement that perfectly reflects our approach at EBCONT: “We shouldn't ask where we can use AI, but what we want to improve.”

In the interview, Markus explains why true innovation requires more than just new technologies, why people must remain at the center of everything we do, and how AI can create sustainable value.

We wish Markus every success in his expanded role and look forward to continuing to shape EBCONT's future together!
