First of all congratulations to all candidates, it's hard to put your name forward, it takes courage and time to write a candidacy. I also want to thanks Christophe for his 3 years term.
And last but not least, Nataliaa and Shani, I wish you all the best for your role as Trustees (and congrats for being elected!).
