The new innovative growth areas include the online tourism platform LTE, through which TUI aims to tap new global customer groups and markets, including Spain, Portugal, Turkey or Brazil.
The development of the Asian market, where the Group recently entered into a cooperation scheme with Chinese online provider Alibaba’s travel platform, is to additionally promote dynamic strategic and operative developments.
Rosenberger is an industrial engineer. Prior to joining TUI in autumn 2015, he had held group-wide responsibility for the global development of new business areas at Vodafone Group Plc.
The role of TUI group director strategy will be taken over by Henrik Homann (54), managing director OneAviation in charge of the activities of the Group’s five leisure airlines. In assuming the new Group function, Homann will also join the group executive committee from 1 January.
Homann joined TUI Group in 1995. From 1999 to 2014, his roles had included CFO and HR Director as well as labour director for the group’s subsidiary TUI Germany.
