I would like to thank my phenomenal team for their energy, talent and constant ambition for the brand, and, of course, all of the YOOX NET-A-PORTER GROUP leadership for their support. As PORTER hits its 5-year anniversary milestone, it feels like the perfect time to take on an exciting new challenge.”
