Alasco Accelerates European Expansion — Names Co-CEOs to Lead Next Growth Chapter

Alasco, the financial management platform for real estate, today announced the appointment of Emanuel Breitsameter and Benedict Marzahn as Co-Chief Executive Officers (Co-CEOs).

The leadership transition follows a planned succession by founder and former CEO Benjamin Günther, who is stepping away from day-to-day operations. Günther will remain actively involved in Alasco’s strategic direction as a board member, senior advisor, and shareholder.

“This is the right moment to hand over the reins,” said Benjamin Günther. “Alasco is in a strong position, with a clear focus, proven product-market fit, and a new leadership team. I’m confident that Emanuel and Benedict will lead the company with clarity, ambition, and deep care for the team and customers.”

A Co-CEO Model Built for Strategic Execution and Product Leadership

The newly appointed Co-CEOs will jointly lead the company with a shared mandate to accelerate execution, strengthen customer value, and position Alasco as the financial operating system for real estate across Europe.

• Emanuel Breitsameter, formerly COO at Alasco, will lead the company’s commercial and market-facing functions, including go-to-market strategy, expansion, and investor relations.
• Benedict Marzahn, who previously led Alasco’s product strategy, will continue to focus on product development, with additional responsibilities around customer value creation, and innovation — including the platform’s growing use of AI to power smarter financial decision-making.

“This leadership model reflects our dual priorities: to lead the market and to lead with product,” said Breitsameter. “We’re aligned on where we’re going — and confident in the team that will take us there.”

“Our goal is simple: to make Alasco the platform every major real estate project in Europe runs on,” added Marzahn. “With a clear focus and a sharp product vision, we’re focused on expanding across Europe while continuously raising the bar on product excellence. And our recently signed partnerships — including Alcaro Invest — demonstrate that our scaling strategy is working.”

Strong Momentum with Leading Real Estate Investors

The leadership transition comes at a time of accelerating commercial momentum. In recent months, Alasco has been selected as the financial and sustainability management platform of choice by Alcaro Invest, the logistics development arm of OSMAB Holding AG and several other leading real estate investors, including some of the world’s largest private equity firms.

These wins further validate Alasco’s position as a mission-critical system for financial management, especially for developers and asset managers undergoing large-scale projects and retrofits.

Expanded Senior Leadership Team Driving Execution

The Co-CEOs will be supported by a seasoned and expanded senior leadership team:

• Anselm Bauer, Alasco co-founder, continues as Chief Technology Officer, leading engineering and platform development;
• Anca Stefanescu, VP Europe, leads international expansion across key growth markets;
• Monica Dinu, VP Growth & Marketing, heads Alasco’s marketing, corporate communications, and supports international growth strategy;
• Moritz Gunz, newly appointed Managing Director and COO oversees finance, operations and Alasco’s small and medium enterprises (SME) go to market motion.

Together, this team brings deep functional expertise and a shared ambition to turn Alasco into the financial backbone of every major real estate project in Europe.
