(07231) 28-6329Claudius Eisenberg is Professor of Business Law at Pforzheim University. After studying at the University of Konstanz, working as a research associate, and writing his dissertation under Prof. Dr. Dr. C. T. Ebenroth, he worked at a Munich law firm specializing in business law. In 1999, he joined the Bavarian State Ministry of Economic Affairs, Transport, and Technology, assuming responsibility for corporate consolidations, state guarantees, development banks, and capital investment firms. Claudius Eisenberg subsequently assumed a position as head of the department for legal affairs, personnel, administration, and PR at Bayern International. In this role, he was also deputy director of the company.
Since 2003, he has taught business law at Pforzheim University, specializing in contract and liability law, commercial law, product safety and liability law, and the interface between private and public business law. In addition to his teaching, he carries out research and practice-oriented projects on product and distribution law, especially on product safety and product liability law, medical products law, and compliance.
In 2008 and 2009, Claudius Eisenberg took a leave of absence to serve as deputy director of the law program run in China by the German Federal Enterprise for International Cooperation (GIZ). This program is part of the ongoing dialog between Germany and China on the rule of law. From 2014 to 2019 he was dean for academic affairs of the Faculty of Business and Law and member of the faculty board.
Claudius Eisenberg studies legal and economic aspects of product and distribution law. Across the entire field of production and distribution, companies are now confronted with a multitude of legal regulations in competition law, product safety law, consumer protection law and further legal requirements. Often, individual employees feel overwhelmed by the vastness of these requirements. In the context of the rapidly advancing digitization of the economy, these requirements are also increasing considerably. Part of Claudius Eisenberg’s work is devoted to taking these general legislative demands and translating them into specific everyday obligations for specific areas in a company.
In recent years, product law in Germany has been strongly shaped by the EU, which has been issuing new regulations (or new regulation proposals) for specific sectors in increasingly short intervals. These EU regulations frequently cause frictions with existing rules in the member states. Claudius Eisenberg works to identify such frictions and develop solutions for dealing with them in management practice.
The still ongoing introduction of the new EU Medical Devices Regulation raises numerous questions for the medical devices industry, which are heightened by Brexit and the difficult, still open negotiations with Switzerland on a new framework agreement. Claudius Eisenberg will also deal with selected questions arising from this in the business context. He prepared himself for this work by completing TÜV certification as a manager of international regulatory affairs.
In addition, Claudius Eisenberg is active as a business mediator.
