EFESME Looks to Future, Names Board

During its general assembly held online on June 19, the European Federation for Elevator Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises (EFESME) reinstated board members and added a new one. Reelected were Massimo Bezzi (Italy), president; Damyan Petrov (Bulgaria), vice president; and Luciano Faletto (Italy), secretary general. They were joined by José María Compagni Morales, coordinator of the federation’s Spanish member Federación Española de Asscoaciones de Pequeña y Mediana Empresa de Ascensoristas, who will serve as second vice president. With Morales’ contributions, EFESME said it aims to develop additional programs for lift small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Marcel Boutillier (France) was thanked for his contributions as vice president and, previously, president. During the assembly, members said they plan to continue activities aimed at building “an increasingly SME-friendly working environment at the national, European and international levels.”
