Ex-Prime Minister Florian Stegmann Journeys to Berlin
Florian Stegmann, a central figure in the green-black government of Baden-Württemberg, has announced his departure from politics and state administration to join a company focused on the development and support of TYPO3 CMS, a popular content management system.
For over a decade, Stegmann served in various roles within the state government, most notably as a state minister from 2018 until the beginning of this year. Minister President Winfried Kretschmann valued Stegmann as a loyal and reliable organizer of government work, praising his specialist competence and assertiveness in the State Ministry.
Stegmann's tenure was marked by his push for bureaucratic reform, including the digitization of the administration. An example of this effort is the AI software F13, which he helped to drive forward.
However, Stegmann's decision to leave politics was not entirely unexpected. His family situation has eased, allowing him to start a new professional chapter. The specific role or company Stegmann will be working with in Berlin is not yet clear.
The company Stegmann is joining operates at the intersection of politics and economics, advising companies. It is represented by the TYPO3 Association members and is involved in shaping the future of TYPO3 CMS, a platform used for web content management.
Before joining this company, Stegmann held a role in the government of Stuttgart, although the exact position or title he held within Stuttgart's government is not specified in the available search results.
Florian Stegmann is described as an exceptional leader by Harald Christ, the founder of the company. Harald Christ has withdrawn from operational business and has a history of political involvement, having previously served as the middle-class representative in the SPD. He later resigned following the D-Day affair during the collapse of the traffic light coalition and joined the FDP, where he became federal treasurer.
Harald Christ has also founded a foundation to promote democracy and donates money to all democratic parties. His company currently employs 70 people and has a balance sheet total of 140 million euros.
Stegmann, at the age of 54, is looking forward to shaping the success story with Harald Christ. While Stegmann's departure from politics may be a loss for some, his new venture in the TYPO3 CMS company promises an exciting new chapter in his career.
