Paris, France -- December 23, 2025 -- Vantiva (Euronext Paris: VANTI), a global technology leader enabling Network Service Providers to connect consumers worldwide, today announces leadership changes on its Board of Directors.
Independent Board Director Katleen Vandeweyer has been voted into the Chairperson role. Katleen has a strong background in business management with solid telecommunications experience.

In connection with the appointment and in consultation with the Board and Vantiva leadership, Brian Shearer has stepped down from his role as Chairperson.
"We are very excited about Katleen stepping up to lead the Board. Her work as Chairwoman of the Audit Committee and Lead Independent Director, and her strong track record of leadership in business and technology, make her the ideal leader to guide our Board through Vantiva's next chapters of growth," said Tim O'Loughlin, CEO of Vantiva. "Brian's leadership was instrumental during our pivotal acquisition of CommScope's Connected Home business and the strategic divestiture of our Supply Chain Solutions division. I greatly appreciate Brian's expertise and leadership, and we look forward to working alongside Katleen to build on Vantiva's success to date."
"It is an honor to become the Chairwoman of the Vantiva Board of Directors as the company continues to execute against its strategic plan, " said Katleen Vandeweyer. "I look forward to continuing my work with Tim and the entire Board to deliver long-term value for all our stakeholders."
"We are pleased to see Katleen step into the Chairperson role. She has been an excellent Chairwoman of our Audit Committee. I am highly confident that Katleen, the Board, and the management team will continue leading Vantiva successfully," said Brian Shearer.
