We are on track for another record year, and given the dramatic changes our competitive landscape is witnessing every day it is imperative that we act on the opportunities ahead of us. As such, I look forward to witnessing the leadership qualities and fresh outlook Mounir and Peter will bring to their new roles, and to strengthening our partnerships with all stakeholders in our extended team of colleagues, partners and vendors.”
