         <description><![CDATA[<p>At Richemont, our true power does not lie in our similarities but in the rich diversity of our arts, cultures, and human skills, as well as our specific ability to foster untapped potential.</p><p>Our Group has built an array of competences to nurture all of its unique and diverse Maisons and businesses, allied with a strong set of values: flair for finding hidden gems, the respect to learn from their founding families, the courage to develop them, and the patience that allows them to meet their full potential over the long term.</p><p>We believe in creating goodwill, rather than buying goodwill. Over the years, hidden treasures such as Van Cleef &amp; Arpels, Panerai and Peter Millar have experienced exceptional growth. We will take the time to nurture Buccellati, Delvaux and Gianvito Rossi the latest additions to the Richemont family, with the same care and dedication.</p>]]></description>
