Agnès Paillard is co-opted as an independent member of Fermentalg's Board of Directors



Libourne – 27 October 2014 – Fermentalg, an industrial biotechnology company that specializes in the production of oils and proteins derived from microalgae, is pleased to announce that Mrs Agnès Paillard has been co-opted as an independent director[1].


Agnès Paillard is the current Chairman of the Board of Directors of the French National Institute for Industrial Property (Inpi), President of the Aerospace Valley competitiveness cluster and Vice-President responsible for regional innovation policy for Airbus Group France. A graduate of ESPCI ParisTech, Agnès Paillard was Chief Executive of Serma Technologies from 1995 to 2002 before being appointed Deputy Director in charge of economic development, research and technology transfer for the Regional Council of Aquitaine until 2009.


For Pierre Calleja, Founder and Chairman and CEO of Fermentalg: "We are immensely proud to welcome an independent director of Agnès Paillard's caliber and precious expertise. I would also like to take this opportunity to thank Sofiprotéol representative Claire Maingon for her work as a member of the Board of Directors over the past 2 years, and once again pay homage to Professor Daniel Thomas who was a director for Fermentalg from 2011 and who sadly passed away last May. The day of tribute organized by the Enzyme and Cellular Engineering laboratory of the Université de Technologie de Compiègne on 10 October once again brought to light the Professor's extensive contribution to the field of life sciences and biotechnologies."


Following this co-opting, Fermentalg's Board of Directors shall include:



  • Pierre Calleja, Chairman

  • Bernard Maitre, representative for Emertec Gestion

  • Agnès Paillard, independent director

  • Gilles Schang, representative for Bpifrance Investissement

  • Stéphane Villecroze, representative for Demeter Partners

Fermentalg's decision to appoint a new independent director to its Board is part of its commitment to implementing the procedures needed to ensure its compliance with the core recommendations of MiddleNext's corporate governance code.
