Patrick Partouche

PATRICK PARTOUCHE, aged 35, was raised in a family from which he
inherited the taste for business and public relations. Very soon he
gets passionate about the Partouche Group. In high school, he dedicates
all his spare time to the management of a nightclub in Saint-Armant-les-
Eaux. At the age of 18, he becomes dealer, familiarising himself with
the gaming business. He studies economy, law and management in Lille
then at the University of Tolbiac in Paris. He could then have gone to
the ISG School but instead chooses to get more rapidly and directly
involved in the group. He joins the Executive Committee of the Casino
of Forges les Eaux in 1986 and at the same time works with his father
Isidore Partouche, founder of the Group. In 1989, aged 25, he runs the
Casino of Dieppe, becoming the youngest Director of a casino in France.
In 1993, he is promoted to Chief Executive Officer of the Casino of
Juan-les-Pins and shortly after the Casino of Beaulieu sur Mer and the
Garden Beach Hotel in Juan-les-Pins. He now also manages the Carlton
Casino Club and the Palm Beach in Cannes.
