Changes in the Board of Directors
The Board of Directors of Contisystems S.A. hereby announces that Pedro Caravana has ceased his duties as CEO and Administrator of Contisystems and was replaced by Duarte Conceição, who served as CTO and deputy CEO of the company.
Duarte Conceição holds a degree in Information Systems Management, holds a Post-Graduation in Project Management and an MBA from Universidade Nova-Católica. He began his professional career as a programmer at Altran and became a part of the staff of Contiforme in 2001 to lead technology projects in the banking field as well as the first digital certification project of the Portuguese Parliament. Between 2002 and 2004 he managed the @DAN project for the European Commission in the area of secure payments for mobile devices. In 2009 he was invited to lead a spin-off of the development area resulting in the birth of Contisystems, a company focused on software in the area of IoT and RFID. In 2015, Contiforme and Contisystems merged their activities and from that date on Duarte took over the CTO position of the company.
We are certain that Duarte and the rest of the management team, under a continuity policy, will have the greatest success in the mission of ensuring that we are the fastest and most reliable end-to-end supplier of personalised communication products and services with Customers.
Pedro Caravana will continue to collaborate with Contisystems as an independent consultant in the areas of CCM, digital transformation and postal optimisation, for external markets.
The Contisystems’ Board of Directors acknowledges the contributions and dedication of Pedro Caravana in Contisystems’ the business development, while he has held the functions of company management and CEO, and wishes him luck in this new professional project.
