Leonardo's Marco Viola Takes Over Leadership of Kopter
Kopter CEO Andreas Lowenstein has left the light helicopter manufacturer that Leonardo acquired in early 2020.

The Leonardo executive charged with integrating its $185 million purchase of light helicopter maker Kopter earlier this year will now function as its interim CEO. Marco Viola, who previously served in a variety of senior maintenance and support executive positions for the Italian helicopter maker, is stepping in to fill the void left by the departure of former Kopter CEO Andreas Lowenstein, who has left the company “to pursue other opportunities,” according to Leonardo.
