Patrick Seguin
Chairman of the Bordeaux Gironde CCI
Chairman of the Bordeaux Gironde Chamber of Commerce & Industry since 2017, Patrick Seguin has pursued a career in land use planning. A Cognac native, he became familiar with entrepreneurship at an early age when at 16 his father was admitted to hospital and he took over at the helm of the small sand and gravel transport company instead of attending school. Chairman of the SOC Group (Sud Ouest Canalisations) for nearly 20 years, he subsequently founded Greease, a trade name stemming from the merger of two Bordeaux entities, ICSE and Kel’Air. Interestingly, Patrick took part in the 2016 Dakar race, winning the T4-3 racing truck category. A victory made all the sweeter by the fact that he was supporting the cardiac surgery sponsorship through which he welcomes foreign children as they await heart surgery in Bordeaux.
