safe-ortho-dumouchel

Safe Orthopaedics said late last month that it is keeping on interim chief executive Pierre Dumouchel as its permanent CEO.

Dumouchel was given the position of interim CEO in March this year, the company said. The company said it also named Dr. Alain Coudray as its new board chair, replacing Gérard Vaillant who has retired.

“Given the success achieved by Pierre Dumouchel in just a few months, it was an obvious decision for the board of directors to make his appointment permanent. His leadership and his tremendous knowledge of the organization and of surgeons’ needs form solid pillars that will underpin the successful execution of our strategy. He will continue to optimize the allocation of our sales and marketing resources to markets with the greatest potential for Safe Orthopaedics’ innovative single-use instruments for back surgery,” Dr. Coudray said in a press release.
