EVS, a global leader in live video technology, today announces the appointment of Christophe Piron as Chief Financial Officer (CFO) of the company. Christophe, who has served as CFO ad interim since May 2026, will take up the role on a permanent basis.

Since joining EVS, Christophe has quickly become a valuable member of the EVS Leadership Team. In addition to ensuring continuity of the company’s financial management and reporting, he has contributed to strengthening financial discipline and performance management.

Christophe brings more than 25 years of international experience across finance, strategy, transformation, M&A and general management in publicly listed, private equity-backed and technology-driven businesses.

Prior to joining EVS, Christophe held several senior finance, strategy and executive leadership positions, including CFO of Alcopa, where he was responsible for the group’s financial management and supported its strategic development and investment activities. He also brings significant general management experience from his subsequent roles as CEO of Bihr and Ecostal Group. Earlier in his career, Christophe developed strong expertise in corporate finance, M&A, capital markets and strategy through positions at Ymagis, Boston Consulting Group and Bank Degroof Petercam.

His experience combines strong financial and capital markets expertise with hands-on business leadership. Throughout his career, Christophe has led transformation programs, acquisitions and integrations, financing activities and performance improvement initiatives, while supporting companies through periods of international growth and strategic change.

Serge Van Herck, CEO of EVS, commented:

“We are very pleased that Christophe has accepted to become the CFO of EVS. When he joined us in May as interim CFO, the objective was first and foremost to ensure continuity while we conducted a thorough selection process for our future CFO. Over the past months, Christophe has demonstrated not only his strong financial expertise, but also his ability to rapidly understand our business, challenge us constructively, and contribute to the broader strategic discussions within our Leadership Team.

As EVS prepares for its next phase of development, we were looking for a CFO who could combine strong financial discipline and capital markets expertise with strategic thinking, international experience and a strong understanding of business transformation. Christophe brings that combination, together with significant CFO, CEO and M&A experience. I am convinced that he will be a strong partner for me, our Leadership Team and our Board of Directors as we continue to execute our growth ambitions and create sustainable long-term value.”

Christophe Piron added:

“The past months have given me the opportunity to get to know EVS, its team members, its customers and the market in which the company currently operates. I have been impressed by the quality of the technology, the expertise and passion of the teams, and the strong position EVS has built in the global live video industry.

EVS has achieved significant growth over recent years and has the ambition and capabilities to go further. I am therefore very pleased to continue this journey as CFO. I look forward to working with Serge, the Leadership Team, the Board and all EVS colleagues to further strengthen our financial and operational performance, support disciplined investment and strategic choices, and help EVS successfully deliver its next phase of profitable growth.”
