Johannes Fuhr

Growing up in Frankenberg in northern Hesse, home of the furniture manufacturer Thonet, Johannes has always been interested in good design. After completing his editorial traineeship at Mediengesellschaft Madsack, Johannes took on editorial management tasks at Frankenberger Zeitung and developed innovative formats and products at the publishing house. His communications management studies with Prof. Klaus Merten in Münster led him into the PR industry. Since 2012, the now 37-year-old has been head of corporate communications at Hephata Diakonie. Integrated communication, digitalisation and (universal) design thinking are the focal points of his work there.
