Nintendo announces major leadership changes in Europe and rebrands Japanese subsidiary

Nintendo has made leadership changes in Europe as the president of Nintendo of Europe, (NoE) Stephan Bole, retires after spending 35 years with the company. The current Chief Financial Officer, Luciano Perena, who has served for three decades, will replace Bole, taking the roles of President, CEO, and management board Chairman.

This new announcement is part of a larger organizational restructuring process taking place within NoE, which looks to improve the strength of the company’s leadership and its operational efficiency in that area. Alongside Perena’s promotion, the company has appointed Laurent Fischer as the new Chief Operating Officer with Tom Enoki set to assume the role of Managing Director. These personnel changes follow the strategic objective of the Company to remain active in the European market and have a leadership team that can face the risks and the possibilities that lie ahead.
