Ecommerce Europe appointed Luca Cassetti as the Director of European Public Affairs of the association. Mr. Cassetti, who has officially taken up his new position as of today, will manage the Public Affairs agenda and the Brussels team of the association on a daily basis.

Luca Cassetti declared: “I am honored to take up the position of Director of EU Public Affairs and I look forward to continuing to represent the interests of the e-commerce sector, in close cooperation with our Members and with the support of the Brussels team of Ecommerce Europe.
