Markus Ziener
Chief Financial Officer
Software AG – Stiftung
As Chief Financial Officer of the Software AG Foundation (since 2014), with responsibility for asset and financial management, I have gained extensive experience in managing and developing complex portfolios—spanning capital market investments, equity investments, and real estate. In this role, I place particular emphasis on the sustainable development of assets, focused on stability and value preservation.
The focus of my work is on the impact-oriented allocation of the foundation’s assets. My goal is to secure the foundation’s assets for the long term while simultaneously further developing their tangible impact on society.
Previously, I held leadership positions for many years in medium-sized renewable energy companies and served as a partner in an internationally oriented consulting firm. I have also served on the supervisory boards of various organizations for many years.
