23.10.25 | Orangerie Basel
The event will take place on Thursday, October 23, 2025 starting at 5:00 pm at the Orangerie Basel.
Without a stage, but with profoundness.
Our aim is to offer a platform for executives from diverse industries to share their personal journeys, challenges, and turning points openly and authentically.
Often, the most valuable conversations happen in between. That is why the evening will conclude with a relaxed networking apéro complemented by appetizers and drinks from Vinaiolo and Etna Pasticceria.
What to Expect?
Life paths, not résumés
Executives Hautnah is not an event about careers, but about character. It is not about résumés, but about the journeys behind them. About decisions shaped by responsibility, change, and people.
Two experienced CEOs will share insights into their very personal leadership journeys:
Matthias Schüle
Managing Director / President, Blackforest Medical Group
Andreas Kraler
Managing Director, HELLA Sonnen- und Wetterschutztechnik GmbH
