On 2 April 2024 the position of the Managing Director passes from Yasumasa Kuboyama to Dr. Yuta Yamanoi, who together with CEO Dr. Markus Ehbrecht will form the new Instrument Systems management team. Dr. Yuta Yamanoi has distinguished himself through more than two decades of professional experience in the field of color and light measurement technology. After eight years in the development department at Konica Minolta Sensing in Japan, in 2016 he transferred to Konica Minolta Sensing Americas Inc. as Business Development Manager. In this capacity he also took over the support of key account customers in the IT segment. Most recently, he was Senior Manager for Strategic Planning in Light & Display and Color & Appearance division of Konica Minolta Sensing Business Unit in Japan.
