After 7 years as a board member of IPHA, representing the Associated Members, Topi Paananen has decided to step down from his position.
Therefore, IPHA is now seeking a new board member among the associated members. This election will take place in our next General Assembly in Rome, Italy, in May.
The IPHA board has a total of three board meetings per year: during the annual conference in May and two other meetings, normally in October and February.
We are seeking:
The new board member must be a proactive and visionary person, who will, together with the rest of the board, bring IPHA forward in the coming years. The person should have knowledge and passion for marketing and the business part of our industry. The new board member will be elected for a 3-year period (2026-2029) but must at the same time have a wish to have a longer view of his board membership.
Topi said of his time serving on IPHA’s Board:
“It has been a privilege to represent the Associate Members in the Board of Directors of IPHA for such a long time. Nevertheless, it is now time to pass this opportunity further to another Associate Member, to be part of developing the hollow-core industry further. See you all in Rome & the events in the coming years!”
If you are interested to be a part of our board, please contact Marco Pecetti, the President of IPHA.
