After 26 years with the MCH Group– which organizes Baselworld, Sylvie Ritter has just stepped down from her role as managing director of the famous Swiss show.
Ritter will be replaced by Michel Loris-Melikoff, who joined the MCH Group three years ago as director of MCH Beaulieu Lausanne. He starts on July 1.
Loris-Melikoff was in private banking before he switched to event management 20 years ago. He was the managing director of St. Jakobshalle, an arena near Basel used primarily for sport and concert events, before joining MCH Group.
