| Zacharias resigns from Vinci Antoine Zacharias submitted his resignation from his roles as Chairman and member of the Vinci Board of Directors "in the best interests of the company and to put an end to the troubles within its management team". The Board accepted his resignation and paid unanimous tribute to his work which, in less than 10 years, made Vinci world leader in concessions and construction, notably through the successive acquisitions of Sogeparc, GTM and ASF. Since 1997, under the chairmanship of Antoine Zacharias, Vinci's revenue tripled, its net profit increased 21-fold and its market capitalisation 20-fold. The Board of Directors elected Yves-Thibault de Silguy Chairman and confirmed Bernard Huvelin and Bernard Val as Vice-Chairmen. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Construction News :: home page |
