EURATEX to review strategy as director general departs
19/03/2018
The review will run until the end of 2018. It will be led by three newly-appointed policy directors: Isabelle Weiler (Trade and Industry), Lutz Walter (Innovation and Skills) and Mauro Scalia (Sustainable Businesses).
Klaus Huneke, president of EURATEX, said: “Our industry has undergone a dramatic transformation and the priorities of our companies are broader and their visions more far-reaching than ever. Our representative organisation in Brussels is crucial to safeguard the interests of our industry and to engage with EU policy makers and other key stakeholders in new ways.”
At the same time, the organisation announced that its long-serving director general, Francesco Marchi, is to step down. It explained that this is a mutual decision.
“I would like to thank Francesco Marchi for the professionalism and dedication with which he served the organisation in over two decades. We wish him all the best for his personal and professional future,” Mr Huneke said.
