End-of-year message from Michael Kirsch

Dear Porsche family, partners, colleagues, and friends across Central and Eastern Europe,

I hope this message finds you well.

As we approach the end of the year, I would like to share my greetings with you in a video format.

The contents of this video reflect not only our achievements, but also the spirit that makes Porsche Central and Eastern Europe so unique. Your energy and ambition have made this year a remarkable one for our region, and for this I would like to thank all of you who made it possible.

In our spirit of innovation - and with a twinkle in the eye - I have decided to share my few words in most languages of our region, supported a little by the power of AI. This light-hearted experiment reflects our curiosity, openness, and willingness to explore new possibilities. It is not meant to be perfect, but simply to bring a smile and offer a different way of connecting as we close the year. I would also encourage each of you to try not only your local language, but a few others as well if you have the time.

I hope this festive season brings you moments of warmth, reflection, and joy with those who matter most. I look forward to seeing you in the new year renewed, energised, and full of Porsche spirit - ready to achieve even more together.

Warm regards,
Michael Kirsch
CEO Porsche Central & Eastern Europe
