Antony Burgmans Biography :

Antony is a keen supporter of the planet's wildlife and set up an initiative between Unilever and the World Wildlife Fund, resulting in the Marine Stewardship Council.

Born in Rotterdam in 1947, Antony studied at Nijenrode in the Netherlands before going on to study political and social sciences at the University of Stockholm in Sweden. He then completed an MA at the University of Lancaster, UK.

He joined Unilever in 1972 as a marketing assistant and later went on to hold marketing and sales positions in the company�s detergents businesses in Indonesia and the Netherlands, before being appointed chairman of PT Unilever Indonesia.

In 1994 he became chairman of the Europe Committee, which co-ordinates Unilever's European activities. Four years later he was appointed vice chairman of Unilever NV and became chairman of Unilever NV in May 1999. In May 2005, he became chairman of Unilever NV and PLC.

Antony is also a member of the supervisory board of Akzo Nobel, a member of the international advisory board of Allianz AG and non-executive director of BP. He is co-chairman of the Global Commerce Initiative (GCI) and chairman of the supervisory board of the Mauritshuis Museum in The Hague.

His affinity with wildlife led to his participation in the joint initiative between Unilever and the World Wildlife Fund and the setting up of the Marine Stewardship Council. He also chaired a CEO Panel at the World Water Forum in The Hague in 2000 and in Kyoto in 2003.

Married, with a son and daughter, Antony enjoys golfing and skiing, as well as going for walks with his two dogs. Soccer is another love and he is a keen supporter of Feyenoord.
