With over 13 years of experience in project development, acquisition, asset, and investment management, Fieber is set to lead the expansion of the company’s third-party business and enhance its service offerings for both new and existing clients.

Fieber, 37, brings a wealth of experience to his new role, having previously served as Executive Commercial Director at EDGE Technologies.

We also aim to utilize our capacities to successfully complete problematic project developments for institutional investors,” said Kindermann.

Fieber expressed enthusiasm about his new role, stating, “I am excited to bring my experience in project development and acquisition to HIH Projektentwicklung. We see significant potential in the area of advanced but distressed project developments, and I look forward to expanding our business segment in this promising field.”

With Fieber at the helm, HIH Projektentwicklung is poised to strengthen its market position and deliver enhanced value to its clients through strategic project development initiatives.
