About Eric Voigt, Senior Partner at 1.0:
Eric has 20+ years’ working experience in Asia and Europe for corporations and private equity funds, including Zwilling, Zumtobel, Gentherm and Kohlberg Kravis Roberts. He's created millions of dollars of value for Stock Exchange-listed manufacturers, and been in senior roles managing facilities creating auto components and electronics. At the heart of these jobs has been the establishment of new production facilities, the recruitment of entire workforces and the ongoing day-to-day management of these crucial facilities. There are few people better placed to understand manufacturing in Asia, who can apply that knowledge across industries, or who can bring these lessons to bear in any human endeavor.
