Post by Valeo

POV: when your CEO makes it onto the same lineup as automotive GOATs like Akio Toyoda, Luca de Meo, Ratan Tata, Sergio Marchionne, Louis Schweitzer, and François Michelin… … and you feel incredibly proud 😳🔥🌟 Christophe Périllat received the “Automotive Personality of the Year” award yesterday from Le Journal de l'Automobile and a jury of expert journalists. This is the third time in 30 years—after Noël Goutard and Jacques Aschenbroich—that the CEO of Valeo has received this award. “For me, this award is, of course, first and foremost a collective honor that I share with Valeo’s 100,000 employees”, he said during his speech. “Every day, all over the world, they do a tremendous job of envisioning and building the mobility of tomorrow. This award also recognizes our Group’s accelerated transformation, in an industry that is itself undergoing the greatest transformation in its history.” The jury also highlighted his leadership and decisive voice in the debate on European local content. For several months now, Christophe Périllat has established himself as one of the most influential voices in the sector on this critical issue. A proud moment for all of us!💚
