Circus SE (WKN:A2YN35/ ISIN:DE000A2YN355/ XETRA:CA1) today announced the appointment of a new Co-CEO and Chief Financial Officer to bolster its leadership team as the company scales globally and expands its product portfolio. The incoming executive brings over a decade of senior leadership experience in corporate and financing strategy, mergers and acquisitions, international expansion, and business development, with a focus on new technologies in the aviation and automotive industries. At Circus, he will apply these same disciplines to drive the company's growth trajectory.
Nikolas Bullwinkel will continue as sole Managing Director and CEO of Circus SE. Claus Holst Gydesen, who previously served as Co-CEO, transitions to Chairman of the Advisory Board. Former CFO Fabian Becker departs the executive team after nearly five years to pursue his own entrepreneurial path—a decision the company respects and supports. Becker will remain available to the company in an advisory capacity and will additionally join the Supervisory Board of Circus Defence SE.
The new Co-CEO/CFO will be formally introduced at the Q2 Operational Update on July 16, 2026. A confidentiality agreement prevents disclosure of his identity until mid-July. This appointment underscores Circus's commitment to strengthening its leadership structure as it continues to develop proprietary AI models, autonomous robotic sustainment systems, and a central operating platform for civilian and defence applications. With a globally active portfolio of autonomous meal supply robotics and high-volume serial production live, Circus is building the infrastructure for autonomous food supply.
