LUMIBIRD APPOINTS ITS CSR OFFICER

The LUMIBIRD Group, the European leader for laser technologies, is announcing that it has appointed Frédéric Chiquet to take on the newly created position of Chief Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Officer from June 29, 2021.

To build an objective framework and drive progress with its contributions in terms of social responsibility and sustainable development, the Lumibird Group has appointed Frédéric Chiquet as its Chief Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Officer with effect from June 29, 2021.

Frédéric Chiquet has a Degree in Material Physics and a Master’s in Business Administration from IGR-IAE Rennes, and has held various senior program management roles over the past 14 years with the Lumibird Group.

His primary mission will be to coordinate the policy defined by the Board of Directors with a view to promoting and consolidating a business model that incorporates the expectations of all the various stakeholders. To transform this into a real growth driver, he will be working to meet four key challenges:
