The French esports club is undergoing a complete overhaul of its governance in the first quarter of 2026. Behind the mechanics of the corporate bodies, a deeper movement is taking shape: the majority shareholder is taking back control of the club.
Following a series of general meetings held between January and March 2026, the club has profoundly reshuffled its leadership. The result: a new president, a co-founder refocused on operations, and the withdrawal from the corporate mandate of a historic figure of the yellow-and-black club.
In public communications, the executives have officialised part of these changes, presenting Fabien "Neo" Devide as CEO and Nicolas Maurer as CSO. We have pieced together the various official filings deposited with the commercial court registry to provide a precise picture of the changes of recent weeks.

A new entrant
Laurent Bischof is now president of VITALITY. The general meeting of 12 March 2026 appointed him to the position for an indefinite term.
Laurent Bischof had first been appointed managing director (directeur général) a few weeks earlier, before the decisive move of March that lifted him to the top function.
His public CV says it all: Laurent Bischof has been Managing Director and Board member of Rewired since February 2020, and has sat on Team Vitality's Board of Advisors since August 2021. In other words, this is no "outside" president parachuted in: he is a senior executive of the majority shareholder taking operational control of its investment.
And Rewired is not a minority investor: according to the accounts published by the club, Team Vitality is held at around 80% by Rewired Ventures SA, the investment holding company of British-Indian businessman Tej Kohli.
