Leather Naturally, a global benchmark for the promotion of leather, has announced the appointment of Dr. Luis Zugno as Chairman of the Board of Directors. His deep knowledge of the sector, combined with proven experience in leadership roles, make him the ideal figure to lead the organization towards new goals.
Luis Zugno is not a new face for Leather Naturally: already a member of the Board since 2020, he has held the role of leader of the Education Team, demonstrating great competence and passion. His curriculum speaks for itself: a PhD in tanning research, over 30 years of experience in the sector, the position of Global Innovation Manager for Buckman and the role of Executive Secretary of the IULTCS, of which he was also President.
“I am deeply honored by this appointment,” commented Dr. Zugno, “and I thank the members, the Board of Directors and the Supervisory Board for the trust they have placed in me. Leather Naturally represents an excellence in the international scene, and I am determined to carry forward its mission of promoting leather, a noble and versatile material, with renewed commitment.”
