Over the past five years, we have achieved significant milestones through dedication and effort, establishing a sustainable and thriving organisation. These strong results are due to the exceptional focus and support of all teams. I am grateful for their commitment. For me, this is an appropriate moment to hand over to others to bring the company to the next phase. As I look forward to new opportunities, I carry valuable memories from this journey.'
