Zynga strengthens board with ex-Big Pharma CFO

It maybe too much to presume that the appointment is a reaction to founder Mark Pincus returning as CEO, but Zynga has announced a 'steady eddy' addition to its board of directors.

Louis J. Lavigne, Jr is the former CFO of Genentech and has over 20 years executive experience in the health and pharmaceutical industry, and specialises in corporate finance, accounting, growth strategy and management.

"I'm excited to welcome Lou to our Board of Directors during this important time," said Pincus.

"Lou brings deep experience in business transformation and public company operations having previously served as the CFO of Genentech for more than 15 years and as a Board leader for several other companies.

"I look forward to working with Lou and the rest of our talented Board as we pursue our mission to connect the world through games and deliver the best experiences for our players."
