LOS ANGELES, Oct. 20, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, Goldman Sachs (NYSE:GS) is recognizing Nécessaire and CEO & Co-Founder Randi Christiansen as one of the Most Exceptional Entrepreneurs of 2023 at its Builders and Innovators Summit in Healdsburg, California.

Goldman Sachs selected Christiansen from multiple industries to be honored at the two-day event. Nécessaire is a personal care company that leads the way in body care and responsibility. Prior to Nécessaire, Christiansen had a 15-year career at Estee Lauder Companies, where she helped build and scale brands across the portfolio (La Mer, Estee Lauder, ELC Ventures.)

"We are humbled to be recognized by Goldman Sachs for Nécessaire's category-defining work on establishing skincare for the body as well as our stewardship of responsible luxury," said Christiansen.
