Laurent Germain has been CEO of Egis since 2020. A graduate of ESSEC and ENA, he began his career in the public sector, notably at the French Ministry of the Economy and CNES, where he was also Chairman of the Board of CLS. He left the public sector in 2005 to join industry, driven by a desire to transform companies with a strong international presence. At Segula Technologies, which he led for six years, he oversaw rapid growth, doubling the size of the group. At the helm of Egis, he has accelerated international expansion and strategic repositioning around projects that meet the challenges of the climate emergency and enable more balanced, sustainable and resilient regional development. Under his leadership, sales will increase from €1.16 billion to €2.2 billion between 2021 and 2024, and he has developed a dynamic acquisition policy. 41 new companies joined the Group during this period. He is currently Co-Chairman of the France-Saudi Arabia Council and Vice-Chairman of the France-India Council within MEDEF International. In July 2024, Laurent Germain was elected Chairman of the INSA Foundation, which promotes the values of excellence, openness and social commitment of the INSA Group (National Institutes of Science and Technology).
