‘It makes you realize how impactful the IR profession is’: Purcari Wineries’ Victoria Moldovan on being named Europe’s 2025 rising star

One of the best parts of our awards, wherever they may be, is giving IROs the chance to catch up with their peers, many of whom they may not see throughout the rest of the year.

This is particularly true for the next generation of IR professionals, many of whom we recognize with our award for the rising star of the year, which picks out early-career IROs who are ones to watch for the future.

We spoke to this year’s rising star, Victoria Moldovan, of Purcari Wineries Group in Moldova, about what she was looking forward to about the evening and the company’s much envied investor day, hosted at a picturesque European castle.

You can view our red carpet interview with Moldovan at the IR Impact Awards – Europe 2025 below or, alternatively, on YouTube here.
