The Fast and Furious with Dominik Eisend

Dominik states:

“Color is not about just choosing a color but its about developing a color looking especially at the functionality of surfaces”

Dominik Eisend steers & drives Merck’s global Pull Marketing activities within surface solutions, always focusing on design & technology at automotive OEMs. He introduces new trends and stylings and listens closely to what is needed in the market to be able to present the right creations at the right time.
