New dual leadership at Sinus Event-Technik GmbH:
Felix Lokay and Simon Rist take over the management
After more than 35 years, founder Thorsten Schmidt handed over the management of the company to the next generation on October 1, 2025.
With immediate effect, Felix Lokay and Simon Rist will take over 100% of the management and shareholder shares of the company based in Mörfelden-Walldorf near Frankfurt am Main.
Both have their professional roots at Sinus: they completed their training as event technology specialists here and have played a key role in shaping the company’s development in recent years – Felix as Operations Manager for technical processes, Simon as Head of Sales and Customer Care.
Thorsten Schmidt: “This step is important for me not only from a business perspective, but also personally. Now is exactly the right time to inject new energy into the management team.”
A special symbol of the handover: the first self-built spotlight from the company’s youth – “old, rusty, but full of history” – as a baton to the successors. 💡
Thorsten: “Both stand for the values that have always characterized Sinus – trust, openness, creativity and cohesion. I am proud to see you as the new managing directors.”
The new managing directors are also looking to the future: “We see our task as preserving the tried and tested while at the same time boldly breaking new ground. Our goal is to continue to set standards in quality and service – with a strong team and exciting projects. For customers, partners and employees, Sinus remains the trusted, reliable partner with new energy.”
❤️ Thank you, Thorsten – for your passion, pioneering spirit and over three decades of leadership.
🚀 Here’s to a successful future – together as the Sinus team! 💪
