Dr. Klaus Sommer has led the business management area of Bayer Technology Services since July 1, 2002.
He studied physics in Bonn, Germany, and London and joined Bayer AG in 1987. His career began in the physics area of the central research department.

Dr. Sommer then moved to Pittsburgh, USA, to work in the polymers area of Bayer Corporation for seven years. His responsibilities there led to his appointment to head of research in the polyurethane business group. During this time he gained experience in the area of technical marketing. He was also responsible for process research, an area closely related to production.
In 2001, Dr. Sommer returned to the Bayer AG Central Research Department as head of the physics department. Dr. Sommer is married with two children.
