Amsterdam, 19 November 2024 - Azerion announces today that Mr Chris Figee, Chairman of the Audit and Risk Committee and Supervisory Board Member, will be stepping down from his roles with Azerion with effect from the end of November 2024.

With effect from the end of November 2024 Mr Benjamin van de Vrie has been appointed to succeed Mr Figee as Chairman of the Audit and Risk Committee with Mrs Katrin Brökelmann to continue in her role as member of the Audit and Risk Committee. Mr Zafer Karataş will continue as Chairman of the Remuneration Committee.
Commenting on these developments, Mr Wim de Pundert, Chairman of the Supervisory Board said: "We are grateful to Chris for his dedication and commitment to our mission and his significant impact on our organization and, in particular, during its initial phase as a listed company and through a period of significant transformation and growth. We wish him every success in his other roles. At the same time, we are delighted that Mr van de Vrie has accepted the role as Chairman of the Audit and Risk Committee."
Looking forward, Azerion continues to see significant opportunities in the market to continue the growth and expansion of its Platform both organically and through strategic partnerships.
