For reasons of the company's continuing growth, the Supervisory Board is establishing the Group's management on a broader basis

With the imminent departure of Guido Spix, and in the light of the gratifying growth of the MULTIVAC Group, the Supervisory Board has taken the decision to establish the structure of the Group's management on a broader basis.
