SIG GROUP AG At the Annual General Meeting of SIG Group AG ("SIG" or "the Group"), to be held on 23 April 2024, all existing members of the Board of Directors will stand for re-election for a one-year term of office. The Board of Directors also proposes the election of Thomas Dittrich as a new member of the Board of Directors for a one-year term.
Thomas Dittrich, a Swiss and German citizen, has been the Chief Financial Officer of Galderma since 2019. Prior to this, he held various high-level management positions including those of Chief Financial Officer and executive member of the Board of Directors of Shire plc. He joined Shire from Sulzer AG, where he served as Chief Financial Officer and as Chief Executive Officer ad interim.
Andreas Umbach is proposed for re-election as the Chair of the Board of Directors for a one-year term. Andreas has decided not to stand for re-election at the 2025 Annual General Meeting. Andreas has served as the Chair since the listing of SIG on the SIX Swiss Exchange in September 2018. During this time his strategic guidance of the Group has been invaluable.
To ensure an orderly transition, the Board of Directors will initiate a search for a new Chair for election at the 2025 Annual General Meeting. The search will be overseen by the Nomination and Governance Committee.
The invitation to the 2024 Annual General Meeting is available here. Further details of all Board members and Board Committees can be found in the 2023 Corporate Governance Report.
