The company has called an extraordinary general shareholders’ meeting for 28 November at its headquarters in Alcobendas, with the sole purpose of approving the acquisition of 89.68% of Hispasat. This will enable Indra to fulfil one of the conditions of the agreement signed with Redeia last January and advance its commitment to the communications and satellite technology sector.
The deal, announced in early 2025, is still subject to approval by Spanish and other relevant regulatory authorities, as well as certain accounting agreements that will allow Hisdesat to be integrated into the group.
The meeting will also address changes to the Board of Directors. Mónica Espinosa and Arancha Díaz-Lladó are expected to be appointed as new independent directors, replacing Coloma Armero and Olga San Jacinto. Several board members will also be put forward for re-election, including Belén Amatriain, Virginia Arce, Bernardo Villazán and Teresa Busto, as well as SEPI representative Juan Moscoso del Prado.
These additions reinforce Indra’s commitment to diversity and maintain the balance between independent, proprietary and executive directors.
Integrating Hispasat will be a significant part of Indra’s strategy to strengthen its position in the rapidly expanding space and telecommunications sector in Spain, which is key to developing connected and defence services.
