Carbios announced the strengthening of its leadership team with the appointment of Bénédicte Garbil as Senior Vice President of Corporate Affairs and Sustainability. Bénédicte Garbil oversees three strategic areas: Public Affairs, Corporate Affairs, and Sustainability. In her Corporate Affairs role, she supervises Communication, Regulatory, Project Management, and Innovation Funding functions. In her Sustainability role, she oversees CSR1, QHSE2, and LCA3 functions. Bénédicte Garbil also joins the Group's Executive Committee.

Emmanuel Ladent, CEO of Carbios: "Carbios, as a key industrial and innovation player in the ecological transition, is deeply committed to the sustainable development of its business model and operations. It’s therefore only natural that this strategic issue should be at the heart of our governance. With this in mind, I am very pleased to appoint Bénédicte to the Executive Committee."

Bénédicte Garbil, Senior Vice President of Corporate Affairs and Sustainability: "The fight against plastic pollution is a societal issue, and the emergence of new technologies requires the involvement of both private and public ecosystems. Public and Regulatory Affairs is fundamental for Carbios and its partners. The solutions and technologies developed by Carbios are crucial for the sustainability of the planet, but how we implement them must also be sustainable. I am proud to join this flagship of French innovation and its dedicated teams."
