He succeeds Valérie Danaguezian, who has held this position since 2005.

Mathieu-William Gilbert joined the Company in May 2024 as Chief Operating Officer following a distinguished career of more than fifteen years at Novo Nordisk, where he held Vice President and General Manager positions for several subsidiaries in North Africa and Latin America.

It is with great pride and responsibility that I commit to working alongside an outstanding team", said Mathieu-William Gilbert. "These past months have reinforced my confidence in Adocia's potential, and I am determined to contribute to its success”.

Valérie Danaguezian, Chief Financial Officer of Adocia for more than 18 years, has provided invaluable expertise to the company, contributing to its founding and growth, notably during its transition from a private company to a public company listed on the regulated market of Euronext Paris. She previously held senior positions at Sanofi Pasteur and Flamel Technologies alongside the Soula family.

"It is with great emotion that I leave Adocia after nearly two decades as Chief Financial Officer, alongside the founders, the Soula family. I am proud to have contributed to the development of this company, which stands out for the talent of its employees, its ability to innovate, and its adaptability to change," said Valérie Danaguezian. "We have had the time for a thorough transition with Mathieu, and I have come to appreciate his skills and strategic vision. Lastly, I would like to thank Gérard and Olivier for trusting me and for the intense and rewarding years we have spent together."

"It is not without deep regret that we see Valérie leave, and at the same time, we are happy to see her thrive in a project close to her heart. Adocia owes a great deal to Valérie, whose contribution has been exceptional. On behalf of the entire team, we would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to her", said Olivier and Gérard Soula, co-founders of the Company.

"Mathieu joins the team with valuable experience that enriches us, and the determination needed to achieve our ambitious goals. I am delighted to have him with us", added Olivier Soula, CEO of Adocia.
