Biography

Klaus-Peter Schulenberg is founder and CEO of CTS Eventim, leader in the European ticket and live entertainment market.

His acquisition of regional concert promoters, ticketing agencies, venue operators and event producers has created friction with cartel authorities.

Before the coronavirus pandemic, the company, of which Schulenberg owns 39%, sold more than 250 million tickets annually.

In 2018, Germany's transportation ministry awarded CTS Eventim and Austria's Kapsch TrafficCom a 12-year contract to collect passenger vehicle tolls.

After European regulators scrapped the plan, CTS and Kapsch claimed over $600 million in damages from the German transportation ministry.
