This was announced by the US Internet company today, Monday. Antlanger-Winter has been with Google since the end of 2018 and has been responsible for Austria as country manager since then. She had been interim head of Google in Switzerland since mid-November 2022 because her predecessor Patrick Warnking had moved to Warsaw to become Google’s head of Eastern Europe.
Antlanger-Winter grew up “between Linz, Leonding and the Mühlviertel,” she once explained to the OÖ Nachrichten. She received her basic IT training at the Hagenberg campus of the Upper Austria University of Applied Sciences. In 2003, she built up the digital agenda of the Vienna-based media agency Mindshare, followed by a move to Google in 2018.
The future workplace of the Upper Austrian is Zurich. “The new task is very exciting for me, there is hardly any other place outside of the USA where Google is working on so many innovations worldwide as Google in Switzerland,” Antlanger-Winter is quoted as saying in a press release. In her new role, she will also look after the core business of the Switzerland-Austria region. The US Internet company has 5,000 employees in Zurich, with a focus on software engineering and research.
According to a broadcast, Google Austria will have an “interim management” until there is a successor plan.
