Infront has announced that Stefan Krauss, its managing director in Austria and vice president of winter sports, will leave after more than a decade with the international sports marketing agency.
Krauss, who spent 12 years with the company, will end his long tenure at Infront at the end of April to pursue a new career as an independent consultant and “embrace a new professional challenge outside a corporate set-up.”
