Evolva Holding SA announced that, as part of entering the next phase of its evolution, the current Evolva CEO Simon Waddington steps down as CEO with immediate effect. Until he will leave the company towards the end of 2018, he will support the new CEO in completing work on Evolva's technology base. Current CFO, Oliver Walker, who has co-led the company's strategic development, will be Evolva's new CEO.

He will retain his financial responsibilities with the current VP Finance Alessandro Del Fabro leading the financial operations. Scott Fabro, Evolva's Chief Commercial Officer, will additionally assume the role of Chief Operating Officer as he will be taking responsibility also for the supply chain. There are no near-term plans to expand the executive management team as Evolva's R&D activities in Reinach will be led by Astrid Schäfer.

She joined Evolva in 2010 and held several critical research roles. Simon, Oliver and Scott have led the planning and execution of the Company's corporate restructuring and transformation from July 2017.
