Do You Like Pizza?

Under Covid- 19 conditions, this general meeting took place online for the first time. This raised special challenges for the elections of the Executive Board and Advisory Board.

In a test vote, the members were asked “if they like pizza”. After this poll was answered correctly and clearly, it was determined that the online voting was feasible and documentable. After the formal requirements have been confirmed, the election of the Executive Board and the Advisory Board could be carried out.

The new President is Karl Heinz Belser from Johnson Controls. He has been an active member of the Executive Board since the founding of the BACnet Interest Group.

Thomas Kurowski, Siemens, was elected as Vice President. Frank Schubert, Beckhoff Automation, is the Treasurer. Both have been working in the Advisory Board of the BACnet Interest Group for a long time. Nils Gunnar Fritz, mbs GmbH, was confirmed in the Executive Board for another two years.
