Board member Nina Siemiatkowski has announced her intention to leave the Board at her own request at the end of 2022 due to time constraints resulting from her commitment as founder and CEO of Milkywire AB ("Milkywire").
The Board of Directors does not intend to convene an Extraordinary General Meeting to elect a new Director.
Nina Siemiatkowski comments:
"I am extremely proud of the portfolio of companies we have built up over the last ten years and the strategy we have set for Flat for the coming years. Now, one year after Flat's IPO, I am leaving the board to fully focus on Milkywire and look forward to following Flat's journey as a long-term owner.”
Sebastian Siemiatkowski, Chairman of the Board, comments:
"Nina and I founded Flat in 2013 and have built it together, culminating in the company’s IPO last year. Nina has of course been a critical part of Flat, and I am confident that she will continue to contribute with investment ideas and share her brilliant creativity outside the boardroom as we continue our journey at Flat"
