About Serge Trigano

An economics graduate from the Paris-assas University, Serge Trigano worked for many years at Club Méditerranée, before taking over the reins in 1993 from his father and cofounder, Gilbert. In 2008, together with Philippe Starck and Cyril Aouizerate, and alongside his sons Benjamin and Jérémie, he launched the Mama Shelter concept, a collection of high-style hotels, where the emphasis is on high standards of service, and warm and welcoming staff, in a highly designed, yet comfortable environment. In 2014, Accor bought a 35 percent stake in Mama Shelter to help speed up international expansion.
