The Board, chaired by Hedwige Nuyens (CEO, International Banking Federation), will provide strategic oversight as EIT Water builds out its water, marine and maritime innovation agenda ahead of full operations in 2027. Six other members were named alongside Angela, with two more to be confirmed.
Angela’s appointment reflects her work growing SUBMARINER into a network with over €260 million in project volume, and her existing roles in the EU Mission Ocean & Waters and on the European Ocean Board. She previously served on the EIT Water Steering Committee.
