François Pinault is honorary chairman of luxury group Kering, which owns fashion brands Saint Laurent, Alexander McQueen and Gucci.
Pinault founded Kering, which started as a wood and building materials company, in 1963.
In 1999, Pinault changed the direction of the business toward luxury goods when he bought a controlling stake in Gucci Group.
Today the $17.2 billion (2025 sales) company, which also owns Balenciaga and Saint Laurent, is run by Pinault's son, François-Henri.
Pinault and his family own iconic auction house Christie's, plus a 3,000-piece art collection with works by Picasso, Mondrian and Koons.
In 2023, they bought a majority stake in talent agency Creative Artists Agency from private-equity firm TPG.
Pinault and his family also own several vineyards, a French soccer club, a theater in Paris and a luxury yacht and expedition company.
The Pinault family gave more than $100 million to help rebuild the Notre Dame Cathedral following the 2019 fire.
