The super affiliate’s nomination committee proposed Professor Thomas Plenborg to join the board of directors at the upcoming annual general meeting on 22 April 2025.
Plenborg is a professor in the Department of Accounting at Copenhagen Business School. He brings significant experience as a board member for several Danish companies, most notably as the chairman of the board for the publicly listed company DSV. Over his 14 years with DSV, the company has grown to be one of the world’s largest transport and logistics firms through a blend of organic growth and strategic mergers and M&As. He also sits on the board of the international consultancy group Cowi Holding and previously chaired the audit committee at Saxo Bank.
Petra Von Rohr, Plenborg’s predecessor, has decided to resign from her position on the Board. The nomination committee further proposes the re-election of all other current board members, including Jens Bager (chair), Therese Hillman (vice chair), Britt Boeskov, Todd Dunlap, Leif Nørgaard and René Rechtman.
Commenting on the board changes, Badger said: “On behalf of the board, company and founders, I would like to express our sincere appreciation to Petra Von Rohr for her dedicated service over the past seven years on the board of Better Collective.”
“Following the annual general meeting, we anticipate welcoming Thomas Plenborg as a new board member. With his proven track record in overseeing significant shareholder value creation and strategic growth, I am confident he will be a strong addition to the board.”
Members of Better Collective’s nomination committee comprise Søren Jørgensen (appointed by Chr. Dam Holding), Troels Bisgaard Vig (appointed by J. Søgaard Holding), Anders Lund (appointed by BLS Capital Fondsmæglerselskab A/S) and Jens Bager, chair of the board of directors, Better Collective.
The company recently reported positive FY24 results, with Q4 revenue reaching €96 million (£79.5 million/$100.3 million). However, it expects a major slowdown in the Brazilian market this year.
