Pérès has spent more than 30 years in the hospitality and luxury retail industries. He spent 11 years with Le Méridien Hotels & Resorts, following his tenure with engineering firm Matra/Lagardere Group, now known as EADS, where he led strategic partnerships in the USA and the Middle East.
Born and raised in France, Pérès holds a master’s degree in business administration from the prestigious ESSEC Business School in Paris. He serves on the boards of directors of several corporations and has been an active member of the World Travel and Tourism Council.
