The next generation

After years of broadening his personal horizons, his son Markus Wiedermayer continued the family tradition and took over the management of Wiedermayer & Friends in 2014. He was born with strategic thinking and creative know-how. The sound and practical training in his parents’ business and continuous further training in the field of digital marketing laid the foundation for the repositioning of the agency.

With the support of his business partners Rainhard Lehninger and vm. Stefan Eduard Krenn and the W&F team, Wiedermayer & Friends continues to celebrate success after success after 30 years of existence.
