The Supervisory Board of UNIMOT GAZ S.A. appointed a new Chairman of the Company Board of Directors, Przemysław Podgórski, until now a member of the Board of Directors of UNIMOT GAZ S.A., who replaced the former Chairman, Bogusław Satława.

On the other hand, a person managing  UNIMOT GAZ S.A.  has to face  new serious challenges resulting from the intensification of the Company’s activities in the natural gas sector. Mr. Przemysław Podgórski has wide experience in the gas market, he knows this market from many different perspectives.
