Since 2005, he has been the CEO of Kering and is currently fulfilling this role.

François-Henri oversaw the transformation of PPR into Kering, a high-end fashion brand.
Balenciaga, Gucci, Yves Saint Laurent, and a plethora of other brands are owned by Kering.
The younger Pinault, who is the CEO of Kering, is also the president of Groupe Artemis, a holding company that has a diverse portfolio in fashion, wine, luxury, art, tourism, and other fields.

François-Henry’s father established a timber company with a bank loan a year after his birth.
Pinault S.A. was established and the business underwent a gradual growth, with François-Henry’s initial listing on the Paris Stock Exchange at the age of 16.
During the 90s, the company shifted its focus to retail and acquired some of the top fashion brands, eventually merging with PPR and Kering.
The Artemis Group was established by Pinault, who was senior at the time.
