In recent years, under the leadership of its Managing Director Aymeric de Cardes, the company has completed its integration and invested heavily in the expansion, consolidation and digitalisation of its network to offer a better quality of service.

To continue this momentum, Covage is embarking on a new phase of its development and welcomes Stéphanie Lynch-Habib as its Managing Director.

With over 25 years of international experience, she built her career at Lucent Technologies and AT&T, where she held various management positions in finance, marketing, sales and strategy.

She then served as Chief Marketing Officer at Colt Technology Services, spearheading a marketing transformation and repositioning the company in the large enterprise market.

As Chief Marketing Officer of the GSMA, she restructured event management and completely transformed the marketing function, enabling the business to continue operating in a completely disrupted environment. More recently, she was the President of euNetworks, where she led operations and the go-to-market strategy during the group's recapitalisation.

"I am delighted to join Covage, part of the Altitude Group, to lead this new phase of development alongside the teams. We have a unique capillarity across France to meet the connectivity needs of businesses of all sizes and to accelerate the digital development of regions," said Stéphanie Lynch Habib.

Dorothée Lebarbier, Chairperson and CEO of the Altitude Group, added: "Stéphanie's appointment comes at an important time in Covage's history. After several years of consolidation, we are entering a new phase of growth in which her leadership, industry experience and development expertise will be key to achieving our goals. I wish her, and the Group's Executive Committee, every success in her new role. We would also like to thank Aymeric de Cardes for his commitment and professionalism and wish him all the best in his future endeavours."
