The Board appoints some of its members to serve on the development committee. This committee is meant to serve as a sounding board for the HMS management team on issues having to do with research and development, specific projects and the company’s portfolio of development projects, the organizational structure of the R&D department and how it is managed, as well as the training and development of employees.
Furthermore, the committee should serve as a resource when it comes to preparing and obtaining support for R&D initiatives that require a decision by the Board due to the strategic importance, investment decisions or collaboration with others. The committee should ensure that the HMS Board stays up to date on R&D issues relevant to the company and its future.
The development committee consists of three appointed Board members (Charlotte Brogren, Niklas Edling and Anna Kleine). Niklas Edling was elected as Chairman of the development committee.
