Konrad Augustin, a principal at Germany-based energy group E.ON’s corporate venturing unit, is expected to move from Dusseldorf to Silicon Valley in California, in the United States, over the summer.
In his new role, Augustin will be E.ON’s point of contact in the US for all venture capital activities. He joined E.ON in May 2013 after nearly six years at Germany-based chemicals company BASF’s venture capital unit.
