The IOE Secretariat as of 1 January 2017

 

Dear IOE Members & Partners,

 

As of 1 January 2017, Matthias Thorns has left the IOE and joined the Coca Cola Company.

He will, however, continue to work with the IOE by representing the Coca Cola Company on topics related to business & human rights and industrial relations, as the Coca Cola Company is a partner of the IOE.
