A new and beautiful adventure is starting!”
Christian Esposito, partner and managing director of Étang de Berre Expertise, commented: "Joining Russell Bedford International was an obvious choice for us, in an interconnected world where clients are increasingly looking for local support in Europe and elsewhere.
