DBV Technologies Announces Appointment of Michel de Rosen to its Board of Directors
DBV Technologies (Euronext: DBV ISIN: FR0010417345 Nasdaq Stock Market: DBVT), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company, today announced that Michel de Rosen has been appointed to the Companys Board of Directors, in replacement of George Horner III. Michel de Rosens appointment will be proposed at the Companys Ordinary and Extraordinary General Meeting on June 22, 2018, in Montrouge, France. With this addition, DBVs Board now comprises eight directors.
Dr. Pierre-Henri Benhamou , Chairman & Chief Executive Officer of DBV Technologies, said: It is with great pleasure that we welcome Michel to DBV. We believe his extensive business experience in the biopharmaceutical industry, with 15 years spent in the US, will continue strengthening our team, and that his advice will be instrumental as we move closer to bringing potential treatments to patients suffering from peanut allergy and other diseases.
Michel de Rosen is currently Chairman of the Board of Faurecia, a global supplier of automotive equipment and Chairman of the Board of Pharnext, a publicly-traded innovative pharmaceutical company. Previously, he served as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Eutelsat, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of ViroPharma and Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Rhône-Poulenc Santé. Earlier in his career, Michel de Rosen held key positions at the French Ministries of Finance, Defense, Industry, and Telecommunications.
I am thrilled to join the Board of DBV at this crucial time for the Company and look forward to working closely with the Board and management team, said Michel de Rosen . I am excited to contribute to the progress of this innovative company, notably in light of the potential approval and subsequent launch of Viaskin Peanut, its first product candidate.
