Changes at VINCI’s executive management to step up operating synergies between VINCI businesses

• VINCI is continuing its growth, in particular outside Europe and in the concessions businesses
• In response to these challenges and opportunities, Xavier Huillard has decided to take VINCI’s executive management to the next level

PARIS, 28-Jun-2016 — /EuropaWire/ — VINCI is continuing its growth, in particular outside Europe and in the concessions businesses. Against the backdrop of numerous challenges and opportunities – the energy transition, the digital revolution and the development of open innovation – the group is implementing a strategy centered on the quality of its products and services, the client service it provides and the career paths it offers the talent it seeks to recruit. This strategy entails stepping up operating synergies between VINCI businesses, further fostering cross-business interaction and encouraging horizontal collaboration within a highly decentralised, geographically expanding organisation.

In response to these challenges and opportunities, Xavier Huillard has decided to take VINCI’s executive management to the next level and will henceforth be assisted by three Executive Vice-Presidents: Pierre Coppey, Richard Francioli (Executive Vice-President, Contracting) and Christian Labeyrie  (Executive Vice-President, Finance).

Pierre Coppey has been tasked with giving fresh impetus to cross-Group operations. He has notably been put in charge of forward-looking strategic discussion, environmental policy, operational synergies in France and abroad, the La Fabrique de la Cité think tank and the Fondation VINCI pour la Cité. He will also remain at the helm of VINCI Autoroutes and VINCI Stadium.

Given Pierre Coppey’s new duties and the stepped-up pace of concession development, VINCI Concessions has being assigned to Nicolas Notebaert, who is appointed Chief Executive Officer, with Xavier Huillard serving as Chairman. This new grouping brings together VINCI Airports, VINCI Highways (motorway concessions outside France) and VINCI Railways (railway concessions). Nicolas Notebaert becomes a member of VINCI’s Executive Committee.
