Gilad Yavetz, Co-Founder and Incoming Chairman: 鈥淭oday marks the next step in Enlight鈥檚 remarkable journey to becoming one of the largest and most influential companies in its field. As we enter a new phase of global growth, I have every confidence that Adi is the right person to lead Enlight forward. She brings exceptional leadership and strategic experience from McKinsey & Company and from 3M, where she served as a senior executive and one of the company鈥檚 top leaders. 3M has long been a source of inspiration for Enlight - an iconic industrial company, a pillar of the Dow Jones, and a launchpad for global executive talent. It exemplifies what it means to build a company that is built to last.

This leadership transition is a step of continuity and strengthening. It reflects our deep commitment to long-term excellence, integrity, and shareholder value. "I look forward to working closely with Adi in my new role as Executive Chairman, and I am confident that with her as CEO, together with a strong and experienced management team and a deeply engaged board, we have put in place the right leadership foundation to take Enlight to new heights. I am grateful to continue this path alongside Yair Seroussi, my mentor and friend; Amit Paz, the company鈥檚 co-founder; and the senior leadership from our founding generation, who continue to push and accelerate the company every day. Above all, with the people of Enlight, whose dedication, creativity, and professionalism continue to be the beating heart of the company."

It is a privilege to join the company at such a pivotal moment in its evolution, as it continues to establish itself as one of the world鈥檚 leading players in the renewable energy space. I will lead the company forward with a deep commitment to the values and vision set by its founders鈥擥ilad Yavetz, Amit Paz, and Tzafrir Yoeli; to the employees of Enlight, whose dedication has brought the company to where it is today; and to our investors, who continue to march on this shared path with us. I thank Yair Seroussi, Gilad Yavetz, and the Board for their trust, and I am confident that together we will keep advancing, evolving, and reaching new heights."

During this time, Enlight has become a global leader with uniquely Israeli DNA, combining strong values, entrepreneurial spirit, and uncompromising professionalism.
