Creating value and developing bonds between women, men and their environment “Constantly innovating and reinventing ourselves and seizing sustainable and responsible development opportunities are integral parts of our DNA.” The Bolloré Group’s heritage and family culture have enabled it to create sustainable business activities, diversify them, and invest in innovative projects independently. Driven by a strong spirit of entrepreneurship for the past 195 years, we keep moving forward with our construction, a process which started in the paper industry, then progressed through plastic fi lms all the way to the production of lithium batteries. This technology is used in electric vehicles (cars, buses and trams) and in stationary renewable electricity storage and solutions, and addresses the combined challenges of urban mobility and low-carbon economy. Since 1822, our businesses have undergone major transformations. In order to ensure its resilience to change, over the past thirty years the Group has diversifi ed into the transport sector, where we are now among the leading players, then into the media and communications sector, where we are developing a major global content, media and communications group. The Group is moving forward with its construction by creating bonds between people and their environment, creating value and creating jobs, while dedicating part of its profi ts to helping others.
