Key Changes in the Supervisory Board
In an important development, ASML has announced that Annet Aris will not be seeking re-election for her role on the Supervisory Board upon completing her term at the AGM.

The Supervisory Board has expressed its gratitude towards Annet Aris for her dedication and service. As the company undertakes a succession plan, they have nominated Karien van Gennip as a new member of the Supervisory Board effective from the date of the AGM.
Karian van Gennip: Bringing Experience to ASML
Karien van Gennip comes with extensive leadership experience across different sectors, including professional services, finance, and public policy.
