Media Group - Exceptional meeting with Fabrice Bakhouche

Managing Director of Ouest-France

Dear Alumni,

On Friday December 19th at 8:30am sharp, the HEC Alumni Media & Entertainment Group invites us to an exceptional meeting with Fabrice Bakhouche, Managing Director of Ouest-France.

Interviewed by Christine Kerdellant on the theme: "How a regional Press group was able to transform its model around Diversification: the successful example of Ouest-France".

👤Fabrice Bakhouche joins the SIPA OUEST-France Group on September 1, 2024 as Group Managing Director.

After several experiences in the media world, as deputy managing director of Agence France-Presse and then chief of staff to the Minister of Culture, Fabrice Bakhouche pursued his professional career with the leading French publishing group Hachette Livre from 2017. There, he held the positions of Strategy Director, CFO and General Secretary, then Deputy CEO until September 2023.

He is passionate about the profound transformations underway in the media and cultural industries, faced with the challenge of rejuvenating audiences and digital transformation, as well as the search for new sources of growth; he has led several diversifications into sectors adjacent to the book world, such as board games or stationery, and developed new modes of access to books, via audio in particular.

He has also worked to deepen the societal and environmental roots of these industries, as demonstrated by what has been achieved at Hachette Livre in recent years with the creation of a foundation for reading and the definition of a voluntary trajectory to reduce carbon emissions. Finally, he is committed to society, through his voluntary chairmanship of the association Agir pour l'école and his involvement in structures that promote intercultural dialogue.

📍 Venue: HEC Alumni - 9, avenue Franklin Roosevelt, 75008 Paris

🕗 Coffee welcome from 8:00 am

We look forward to seeing many of you,

Eric Lentulo (MS 03) & Christian Riedi (ESCP 02),
