Christophe Fouquet takes the reins at ASML

Christophe Fouquet has been put forward to become ASML’s next president and CEO, succeeding both CEO Peter Wennink and CTO Martin van den Brink. Fouquet will take the helm on 24 April 2024 at the company’s annual shareholder meeting.

Having been with the company for fifteen years, Fouquet has seen all of ASML’s main businesses from the inside.
