Eutelsat Communications has made a series of new appointments as CEO Eva Berneke reshapes her team. The company appointed Laurence Delpy as general manager of the Video business unit and Cyril Dujardin as general manager of the Connectivity business unit, announcing the appointments Sept. 5. Eutelsat said the two appointments are at the core of its telecom pivot, which will be further strengthened by the combination of Eutelsat and OneWeb announced in July.

Delpy comes to Eutelsat from Palo Alto Networks, a global cybersecurity leader, where she served as vice president of the EMEA Service Provider business.

Dujardin will be joining Eutelsat on on Oct. 10 from Atos where he holds the position of deputy head of the Big Data and Security Business line

“Both Laurence and Cyril will have the mission of structuring and developing our two Video and Connectivity business units in a fast-growing global market. These BUs will build a unique service offering that will be further reinforced by our combination with OneWeb. I am confident that Laurence and Cyril have the strategic vision and operational capabilities to successfully take on these challenges in order to best address the large spectrum of our customers’ needs,” Berneke said in a statement.
