As of 28 August, Patrick Pruniaux replaces Patrik P. Hoffmann as CEO of Ulysse Nardin. He will report to Albert Bensoussan, General Director of the "Luxe - Montres et Joaillerie" pole of the Kering Group, to which the brand belongs.
Patrick Pruniaux benefits from a long experience in the watch industry, first at TAG Heuer where he held various positions of responsibility for nine years and later at Apple where he was involved in the launch of the Apple Watch.
Albert Bensoussan said: "I am delighted that a talent like Patrick Pruniaux is joining Ulysse Nardin and thus demonstrating once again the attractiveness of the Kering group. His in-depth knowledge of the watchmaking industry from both a product innovation and a customer and distribution point of view will be an asset as we continue to develop this watchmaking Maison relying on his cutting-edge technological expertise and unique identity. I would like to thank Patrik P. Hoffmann and pay tribute to him for his decisive contribution to the growth and influence of Ulysse Nardin for almost two decades".
