Eching near Munich, 23. September 2013 - Kontron AG, a leading global
provider of Embedded Computer Technology (ECT), has appointed Eric
Sivertson as new head of its business unit Military, Avionic and Rail

'Eric is a big win for Kontron. His decades of relevant industry experience
and his unique business network, especially in the US, will boost our
