2023 Combined Shareholders’ Meeting renews the
composition of the Orange Board of Directors
Today’s Shareholders’ Meeting, chaired for the first time by
Jacques Aschenbroich, approved all the resolutions put to the
shareholders by the Board of Directors, including the appointment
of two new directors, Momar Nguer and Gilles Grapinet, who will
strengthen the skills and expertise of the Board.
Momar Nguer will bring his international expertise to the Board,
having worked for TotalEnerges in Africa and France for many years.
His experience in the governance of large groups will strengthen
Orange’s Governance and Corporate Social Responsibility Committee
(CGRSE), chaired by Anne-Gabrielle Heilbronner.
Gilles Grapinet will strengthen the Board’s financial expertise.
Gilles Grapinet, currently CEO of Worldline, is an Inspector of
Public Finances. He has acquired expertise in financial governance
- internal control, audit, compliance, and quality of financial
information - over the course of his career and it was therefore
decided to appoint him as Chairman and financial expert of the
Group’s Audit Committee.
The analysis of business relationships and potential conflicts
of interest carried out by the Board of Directors did not reveal
any conflict of interest and these new directors are therefore now
independent directors.
During the meeting, Jacques Aschenbroich expressed his pleasure
at welcoming these two new members to the Board and at renewing the
terms of Anne-Gabrielle Heilbronner, Anne Lange and Alexandre
Bompard for another four years.
He also warmly thanked Jean-Michel Severino and Bernard
Ramanantsoa for their exceptional contribution to the work of the
Board of Directors during their respective terms of office.
The meeting was also an opportunity for Orange to present to
shareholders the Group’s new strategic plan “Lead the Future” and
its climate strategy, supported by Christel Heydemann and her
entire Executive Committee.
All the resolutions presented were voted on by the shareholders.
