Dr. Stephan Tenge, Chairman of the Board of artelis s.a.: "We are convinced that Didier Wasilewski, as an experienced manager with over 24 years' experience within our group of companies, will successfully continue the excellent work done in the past by Georges Muller. By joining Marc Kahabka on the Executive Board, Didier Wasilewski will be able to contribute even more actively to the further development of the artelis group.”
