Stuttgart. The supervisory board of #porsche AG has been reorganised. This was announced by the sports car manufacturer's supervisory body today. The reason for the conversion is the planned IPO of the company. In addition to establishing the necessary new committees, the body has decided to reduce its Executive Committee by two to six members. In the future, the Supervisory Board will also include #micaelalediveleclemmi, #melissadidonatoroos and #haukestars on the shareholder side. On the other hand, Hiltrud Werner (already at the end of January 2022), Hans-Peter #porsche and Thomas Schmall left the supervisory body.

Arno Antlitz and #haukestars will also have a seat on the Supervisory Board's Executive Committee. In addition to the Chairman of the Supervisory Board, Dr. Wolfgang #porsche, other members of the Executive Committee are Jordana Vogiatzi, Harald Buck and Carsten Schumacher.

The Chairman of the Supervisory Board of #porsche AG, Dr. Wolfgang #porsche says: "The reorganisation of the supervisory board is related to the planned IPO. We are pleased that we were able to win three competent members. Micaela le Divilec Lemmi is a well-versed expert in the luxury goods industry. #melissadidonatoroos and #haukestars are experts in the technology industry. I am convinced that they will accompany the work of the #porsche supervisory board in a constructive and advisory capacity and will provide entrepreneurial impetus within the limits of their monitoring and advisory function." In addition, Dr. Wolfgang #porsche thanked the departing members for their dedicated work on the Supervisory Board, some of which lasted many years.
