Effective 1 July 2025, Thomas Pilsl will take over the role of Vice President Public Safety from Robert Nitsch. He will be responsible for the worldwide Public Safety business of the Frequentis Group.
Currently Vice President of New Market Solutions, Thomas Pilsl has been instrumental in driving Frequentis' software-centric business model and has played a key role in the successful market introduction of LifeX for Public Safety. Since joining Frequentis in 2016, he has held several senior leadership roles, including Director Competence Centre LifeX and Director Products and Programme Delivery Public Safety. In 2020, he assumed the role of Vice President Product Management and implemented a corporate product management framework across the Group. In 2023, he took over the newly formed Business Unit New Market Solutions and expanded the Frequentis portfolio with forward-looking innovations.
Prior to joining Frequentis, Thomas Pilsl held leading international management positions in the IT and software sectors for many years. In addition to his extensive leadership experience, he brings in-depth industry knowledge, as well as high expertise in business transformation, change management, and programme and product management.
He will follow Robert Nitsch, who joined Frequentis in 1991 and has led the global Public Safety business as Vice President since 2012. Besides other positions, Robert was COO and President of Frequentis USA, where he guided the company through a period of steady expansion. In 2012, Robert returned to Austria as Vice President Public Safety. Under his leadership, Public Safety has achieved many significant successes and has been able to continuously expand its market presence.
After 34 years with Frequentis, Robert will continue to support the Group, focusing on business development in the area of Mission Critical Services (MCX).
"Robert Nitsch has shaped the development of our Public Safety business like no other. He has built strong international partnerships and has been the driving force behind the global success of LifeX. On behalf of the Executive Board, I would like to thank Robert for his outstanding contribution and continued commitment," says Norbert Haslacher, CEO Frequentis.
"Thomas Pilsl combines strategic thinking with deep operational experience and a clear customer focus. He has a proven track record of delivering results and driving innovation, and I wish him every success in his new role."
Frequentis will be exhibiting at Critical Communications World (CCW) 2025 in Brussels, Belgium, from 17–19 June at Booth #K40 where they will be exhibiting MissionX – the end-to-end solution for public safety/ public transport.
