Stuttgart, Germany, 23 August, 2016 (APA/OTS) - David Napoléon
Genot, new Executive Design Director of Europe
Borgward Group AG is continuing to strengthen its team of
experts in Germany. The company has already announced that it will
be the first German automaker to create a Board of Management
position for Design. Effective January 1, 2017, this position will
be filled by the renowned designer Anders Warming. With immediate
effect, David Napoléon Genot (37), who holds an advanced degree in
design, will join the international design team in Renningen near
the company's headquarters in Stuttgart. Here at the heart of
Borgward design, Genot, a native of Belgium, will serve as the
Executive Design Director of Europe. Working together with the
development teams, he will play a major role in the process of
designing future vehicle generations and families. David Napoléon
Genot studied design at Pforzheim University of Applied Sciences
and subsequently gathered a rich store of experience in the design
studios of Audi, Renault, SEAT, and Hyundai as an Exterior
Designer, Senior Automotive Designer, and Creative Manager Design.
His work focused on concept and series-produced vehicles such as
the Pro-Cee'd 2010, the KIA Sportage 2015, and the KIA "GT" Concept
2011.
He is especially fascinated by the innovative thinking at
Borgward and by the associated opportunities to translate the
spirit of the company's visionary and pioneering founder Carl F. W.
Borgward into present-day terms. David Napoléon Genot is convinced
that this young company with a rich tradition will be successful.
"The entire automotive industry is currently being thoroughly
transformed," he says. "That's why I think this is the ideal point
in time to work together with an expert team to reestablish
Borgward vehicle design at the cutting edge of the global
automotive industry."
