Simon Hochreiter

The grandson of the company’s founder, Manfred Bergmeister, Simon Hochreiter completed his Bachelor of Arts in Lighting Design at the University of Applied Sciences and Arts (HAWK) in Hildesheim. Before joining Bergmeister Leuchten as a lighting designer in 2012, he worked for companies such as Siteco Beleuchtungstechnik GmbH and the renowned lighting design firm Licht Kunst Licht AG in Berlin.

Simon Hochreiter is responsible for customer relations and marketing at Bergmeister Leuchten. Additionally, he is the contact person for all lighting technology matters. Since 2017, he has been part of the management team of the lighting manufacturer.

Tobias Eder

Tobias Eder quite literally “grew up” at Bergmeister Leuchten. He was already working at the forge at the age of 16. After completing his apprenticeship, he continued his education in lighting technology and computer-aided design. He earned his master craftsman certification and worked as a workshop foreman.

Since 2011, Tobias Eder has been shaping the future of the company as Managing Director, first alongside Hans Lohmair and now with Simon Hochreiter. He is fully responsible for the entire order process, from customer contact and design planning to the final hammer stroke. When it comes to his goals, Tobias is clear: “Anything that leaves the workshop must meet the highest quality standards.”
