Bio
Vítor Mota
Chris is an incredible Marketing expert. During my time working closely with him I've learned most of what I know today of Marketing from him and particularly on making the bridge towards consumers. He's very easy to work with, relates to everyone at all levels, listens to people, is highly respected by colleagues and partners and focus his energy on what matters to deliver results.

Working with Chris on a plethora of confectionery innovation projects over the years has been truly enjoyable. No matter what the topic is, he's always light-hearted and approaches the inevitable challenges with a smile. It's the smile of curious, but realistic person: "Heck, look what reality has presented us now. Let's deal with it and make it right." Never intimidated and always eager to find real-world, pragmatic solutions.
