Graduated 1996 Founder of the Authentic Hotels & Cruises hotel chain “After my degree, I started working in trading and funds and founded a mergers and acquisitions company. Then I decided to join the family hotel in St Tropez and I created Authentic Hotels & Cruises in order to differentiate our business from the existing chains by offering an independent and international label. Today it gathers more than 550 hotels and 50 cruises around the world.”
