Stakeholder Engagement Specialists Patrizia Bär and Lisa Mai
Patrizia Bär (right) studied Media Studies and Sociology at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz. During her studies, she gained experience in journalism, including at ZDF. Before joining Vulcan in 2024, she worked as an editor at a regional weekly newspaper in the Palatinate, where she built a broad network across regional politics, municipal press offices, media organizations, and the local business community.

Like Patrizia Bär, she is responsible for organizing regional information events as well as for strategic planning. She is currently pursuing a PhD in political and media psychology at the RPTU (Rhineland-Palatinate Technical University). These perspectives shape her work at Vulcan: making complex topics accessible, fostering dialogue, and systematically integrating stakeholder feedback.
