Prysmian Group New Organizational Structure Supports Future Goals
Prysmian Group (prysmian.com) has introduced a new organizational structure to support its mid-term ambitions and protect its long-term leadership. The company wants to react faster to market changes, stay closer to customers, and better support energy transition and digitalization projects.
Four New Global Business Segments
The Prysmian Group new organizational structure centers on four business segments, each with a dedicated leader:
-
Transmission – led by Hakan Ozmen
-
Power Grids – led by Cinzia Farisè
-
Electrification – led by Cristiana Scelza
-
Digital Solutions – led by Frederick Persson
These segments create clearer accountability. They also allow Prysmian to focus more sharply on grid upgrades, electrification, and digital connectivity solutions.
Matrix Model and One-Company Governance
Prysmian keeps its matrix organization, which combines global segments with strong regional and country teams. This approach keeps the business close to local markets and customers. At the same time, it builds stronger continental and global synergies.
In addition, group functions strengthen “one company” governance. They align strategy, processes, and culture so that customers experience Prysmian as a single, coordinated partner across all segments and regions.
Regional Leadership Updates and New Corporate Role
To match the new structure, Prysmian has refreshed several regional leadership roles:
-
Sezgin Islamoglu becomes CEO of Central East Europe.
-
Erkan Aydogdu leads Middle East, Turkey, India, Africa, and Russia and also serves as CEO of Oman Cables Industry (OCI) Group (omancables.com).
-
Hamavand Shroff takes the CEO role for Oceania and South East Asia.
-
Raul Gil takes responsibility for Latin America.
At the group level, Maria Cristina Bifulco becomes Chief Investor Relations, Sustainability and Communication Officer, combining investor relations, ESG, and communications into one aligned function.
Talent, Culture, and Sustainable Growth
Designated CEO Massimo Battaini stressed that people remain at the heart of Prysmian’s plans. He pointed out that “good, authentic and passionate people make the difference and build companies solid and successful.” With a strong pipeline of talent, he expects the Prysmian Group new organizational structure to support sustainable growth and to strengthen the company as a unified, global community.
