After the announcement of his retirement, Eric Blusseau is receiving a lot of congratulations for his wonderful career:
Hector Fratty, his boss at Bobigny over decades, said: “I congratulate you, Eric for your wonderful job done in halogen projectors; in complex shape reflectors which was the greatest innovation of Valeo; in Xenon, and LED before leaving Bobigny to Angers. In Angers, you continued your endless great job in Valeo’s regulation department”.
Geoff Draper, GTB ex-president, said “I was working closely with Eric Blusseau at GTB since 2008. I congratulated him for his excellent contribution to the work of GTB as Chair of the GTB Front Lighting Working Group. At a human level, Eric fitted perfectly into the task of leading regulatory groups with his patient and friendly approach, ability to communicate at all levels, and his deep knowledge of the emerging technologies”.
Paul-Henri Matha, who knows Eric very well from working at Renault then Volvo, said: “It was a real pleasure to work with Eric. We worked hard together in GTB for UNECE rule making. Eric was chairman of WG Front Lighting and I was in parallel chairman of WG Installation. Our groups were working well with a lot of interaction within the group members to be able to release regulation update like road projection last year”.
Christophe Le Ligné, CTO Valeo Visibility Systems, his manager at Valeo said:
“Eric has deeply contributed to the success of Valeo Lighting. From Innovation to Regulation. His strong and always growing expertise was valuable at the GTB and GRE during active and decisive participation in the leading of regulatory sessions and working groups.”
Eric is now leaving the place to Ana Isabel Munoz who has also a long lighting expertise and international experience at Valeo Lighting
I wish Eric a well-deserved, long and happy retirement.
The lighting community wishes you, Eric, a happy retirement inside your family and your friends and takes this opportunity to wish you a happy new year.
