| STOCKHOLM,
Sweden--At his own request, Börje Vernet has chosen to step down from
his role as a member of the Morphic Technologies (STO:MORPB) board in order
to be able to focus on his commitments as Group CEO of GP Plastic within
the Nordstjernan Group.
“Under current circumstances,
I quite simply do not have the time, as I previously did, to actively participate
in the work of the Morphic board. I have had the privilege of being an
active member of the board for almost two years and have been involved
in the company’s fantastic transformation. Morphic has competent, motivated
personnel, a focused management team, a well-informed, sound board of directors,
and owners who take a long-range view. I am choosing to make my place as
a member available to people who can continue to work actively and close
to the company with its future of exciting development,” says Börje
Vernet.
Börje Vernet is stepping
down from his Morphic role on 18 March.
