NEW CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD IN MOVE ABOUT GROUP AB
The chairman of the board of Move About Group AB ("Move About" or the "Company"), Morten Wiese, is resigning at his own request. He has been chairman of the board since March 2020 and helped to lay out the growth strategy for Move About ahead of the IPO in February 2022.
Together with the Board of Directors and management, he has also been involved in carrying out an extensive turnaround process with significant cost reductions due to changes in the market after the IPO. Ivar Sigurd Eide, CEO of Move About's largest owner Rebelijo AS, is proposed as the new Chairman of the Board, which through the recent issue has increased in ownership from 8.4% to 14.8% of the Company.
"After three years as Chairman of the Board of the company, I have today chosen to leave my role. It is time to invite new strategic resources to Move About Group AB that can help shape the strategy further", says Wiese. He cites the sum of the workload as the main reason for his departure.
Ivar Sigurd Eide, 62, is a trained business economist and authorized financial analyst from the Norwegian School of Economics. Ivar Sigurd Eide has worked his entire career in private and venture capital both in Norway and internationally and has extensive board experience, including from Renewable Energy Corporation ASA.
The company intends to convene an extraordinary general meeting for the election of Ivar Sigurd shortly.
