Commenting on the Board Member changes, Andreas Andreades, Executive Chairman of Temenos, said:

“Maurizio brings a wealth of knowledge and experience of the software sector having worked in a range of highly successful businesses throughout his career. His understanding of software sales organizations is highly relevant to Temenos given the pace of growth we are experiencing and the significant acceleration in demand for cloud and SaaS from our clients. Maurizio’s appointment will further strengthen the skills of our Board.

I would also like to take this opportunity to thank Amy and Sergio for the energy, expertise and guidance they have given the company over the years as Members of the Board of Directors.

Lastly I would like to personally thank our founder, George Koukis, for his invaluable contribution to Temenos. Although he is stepping down as a Board Member I know he will always be close to us to offer guidance and support.”
