This experience aligns perfectly with the ethos and aspirations of Storio group.

As CEO, Alessandro aims to build on the robust foundation established by Tristan and the existing leadership team. Alessandro is committed to transforming Storio group into a distinctive and beloved brand that aims to create joy by connecting people to the moments that matter most!

The rebranding to Storio group reflects the company’s evolution and ongoing commitment to crafting memorable experiences. This change symbolises the company’s dedication to continued growth and innovation in its sector. Central to Storio group’s rebranding is its refined purpose statement, “To Make Joy Unforgettable,” which resonates with its role in transforming customer moments into lasting memories.

Alessandro Coppo expressed his excitement about joining Storio group, “It’s a thrilling time to lead a company that sits at the intersection of digital and physical realms and whose products have a deep level of emotional connection with its customers. Our commitment to innovation and personal connection is unique, and I look forward to building on the strong foundation laid by Tristan and the team. Our new brand identity and values will be central to our commitment to customers and employees.”
