VLODROP - Marianne Kopp will join the Supervisory Board of Vekoma Rides as a new member effective July 1, 2023. She fills the vacancy created by the death of Arnold Steenbakker.

She has also held various supervisory positions, including at the high-tech company Thales Netherlands.
We expect, based on Ms. Kopp's technical and business experience, that she can make a meaningful contribution to the further growth of Vekoma Rides.
