Changes on Implenia’s Board of Directors
Dietlikon, 6 March 2012 – Board Members Toni Wicki and Philippe Zoelly have decided not to make themselves available for re-election to Implenia's Board of Directors at the General Meeting of 4 April 2012. Toni Wicki and Philippe Zoelly have sat on the Board since Implenia was founded in 2006, and in this role have helped to shape the success of Switzerland’s leading construction and construction services company. As a longstanding Member and Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors of Zschokke Holding AG, Toni Wicki was one of the key figures in the merger between Zschokke and Batigroup to form Implenia. As Independent Lead Director on Implenia’s Board for a period, and as the long-serving Chair of the Audit Committee, he has made a significant contribution to the company. Philippe Zoelly joined Zschokke’s Board of Directors shortly before the creation of Implenia, and he has provided support as a long-standing Member of the Nominations and Compensation Committee. Markus Dennler, Chairman of the Board of Directors, said the following: “In the name of all my colleagues on the Board of Directors, I would like to thank Toni Wicki and Philippe Zoelly very much for the work they have done over many years. Their experience and their personal commitment for the job have contributed greatly to Implenia’s success.”
