I am confident that Angela and Ángel will contribute their unique strengths in terms of experience, boldness and passion for the ultimate success of our Group, continuing and further enhancing the path successfully initiated by Annalisa in her last assignment as Chief Operations Officer. I am very appreciative of all the hard work that Annalisa has done for us over the last years.”
