HSBA Board of Trustees: Farewell to Minou Tikrani and Andreas Bartmann

At the November meeting of the Board of Trustees, long-standing members Minou Tikrani and Andreas Bartmann, whose terms in office end in December, were warmly bid farewell. Mr Bartmann, Managing Director of Globetrotter Ausrüstung GmbH, is stepping down from the advisory board after seventeen years of commitment to HSBA. Minou Tikrani, Managing Director of Konstruktiv PR-Beratungsgesellschaft mbH, has been a member of the Board of Trustees for eight years, and has been an active friend and supporter of HSBA since 2010.

‘Ms Tikrani and Mr Bartmann have contributed their expertise to the further development of our university for many years and have thus made a significant contribution to the success of HSBA,’ said Silke Grimm, Chairwoman of the Board of Trustees. ’We would like to express our sincere thanks for their commitment and wish them all the best.’

‘I was involved in the founding of HSBA in 2004 through my voluntary work at the Hamburg Chamber of Commerce, and I was enthusiastic about the idea from the very beginning,’ explains Andreas Bartmann. ’It has meant a lot to me to be able to support and advise HSBA for so many years. I wish it continued success!’

‘As an alumna of the Wirtschaftsakademie, the predecessor institution of HSBA, I have been closely associated with HSBA for 45 years in various functions. The exchange and cooperation on the Board of Trustees has given me a lot of inspiration. I am sure that HSBA will always remain a university that equips young people to make innovative and competent decisions,’ says Minou Tikrani.

Andreas Bartmann has been managing director of Globetrotter Ausrüstung GmbH for 40 years and has been a member of the HSBA Board of Trustees since 2008. This makes him one of the longest-serving members of the university's advisory board. Mr Bartmann has also been involved with the Hamburg Chamber of Commerce for many years, including as a member of the trade committee.

Minou Tikrani studied Business Administration at the Wirtschaftsakademie, the predecessor institution of the HSBA, and has been involved in various roles at the HSBA since 2010. She is a mentor for Master students, a member of the board of the VEEK, one of the partners of the HSBA, a member of the board of the HSBA Alumni Association and, since 2016, a member of the Board of Trustees.
