Mimi succeeded Chris Welsh, who has taken the firm to a new height of global recognition during his nine years as CEO and Chairman of the Board. Chris expanded the OFS Portal community from 200 to over 600 oil & gas operators. Chris will continue to assist OFS Portal in an executive capacity.
Announcing Mimi's appointment, Chris Welsh said: "As the Energy Industry pivots to newer energy sources and new business partners emerge to support the transition, it is time for OFS Portal to embrace the migration to industry agnostic end-to-end digital integration. Mimi has been instrumental in developing the next generation of Digital Highways that complex and agile supply chains will use across the globe. I am extremely pleased she has been appointed to lead OFS Portal and am confident she will sustain and improve OFS Portal's key role in defining energy digitalization for our industry and our current and future supplier members."

I am looking forward to her leadership and expertise as she assumes the role."
Reflecting on her appointment, Mimi said: "I am extremely honored and excited to have been selected to lead this outstanding group of global upstream oil and gas suppliers. Under the leadership of Chris Welsh, OFS Portal is now at a very crucial and influential phase as it continues to emphasize the importance of data protection and standardizing cross-border, cross-industry, and multi-national-government electronic invoicing. In the midst of an energy transition, OFS Portal has a unique opportunity to extend the B2B eCommerce efficiency in the Oil and Gas industry to alternative energy customers and cross-industries."
