- Gildo Zegna will oversee the group’s textile division, the general counsel’s office including internal audit, and external relations spanning sustainability, investor relations and corporate communications.
- Tagliabue, a decade-long cornerstone executive who served as CFO and previously COO overseeing the supply chain, is tasked with guiding the group and future integrations across brands.
