Laura Burdese joined the LVMH group nearly 10 years ago as President and CEO of Acqua di Parma, before moving to Bvlgari in 2022 as Vice President of Marketing & Communication, according to a press release.
She was promoted to Deputy CEO of Bvlgari, which is also active in watchmaking, fragrances, and luxury accessories, in July 2024.
"I am very proud of this smooth transition from a great leader to an equally remarkable executive. Over the past three years, Laura and Jean-Christophe have worked hand in hand to orchestrate the elevation of the iconic Maison Bvlgari," said Stéphane Bianchi, Deputy CEO of LVMH Group and Chairman and CEO of LVMH Watches & Jewelry, in the statement.
Jean-Christophe Babin will continue to serve as Chairman of the Board of Bvlgari, the release specified. He will also remain CEO of Bvlgari Hotels and Chairman of the Bvlgari Foundation.
The group controlled by Bernard Arnault had announced earlier this month the appointment of Pietro Beccari as Chairman and CEO of LVMH Fashion Group, effective January 1, 2026.
