Nicolas Sartini is Ceva's new CEO
At its recent annual general meeting, Ceva Logistics approved all resolutions and appointed a new board of directors. One of the key resolutions was the proposal to renew the management following CMA CGM’s successful completion of its public tender offer to acquire Ceva.
Rodolphe Saadé, chairman and CEO of CMA CGM, was elected chairman of the Ceva board of directors, with Rolf Watter acting as vice-chairman. Marvin O. Schlanger, Victor Balli, Rosalind Rivaz and John F. Smith did not stand for re-election. Rolf Watter, Daniel Hurstel and Emanuel R. Pearlman were re-elected for a one-year term of office until the AGM 2020.
Farid Salem, Michel Sirat and Béatrice de Clermont-Tonnerre were appointed as new members of the board. Nicolas Sartini, who currently holds the position of group COO and deputy CEO, will assume the role of CEO as from 1 June 2019. He will replace Xavier Urbain, who will become executive advisor to Saadé. (mw)
