Mark Vassella, managing director and CEO of BlueScope Steel, will serve as treasurer, and Akihiko Inoue, authorized director and president of Nippon Steel Stainless Steel Corporation, will serve as chairman of worldstainless.
This council will guide the steel industry over the next year.
The Board of Directors also elected 17 members of the worldsteel executive committee for the 2024-2025 term. Among the executive members is the re-elected Alexey A. Mordashov, chairman of the board of directors of Severstal, a passive member of worldsteel.
