Augustin De Romanet has been at the helm of Groupe ADP (Aéroports de Paris) since his appointment as Chief Executive Officer in November 2012, with his leadership reaffirmed in 2014. Under his stewardship, Groupe ADP has navigated the complexities of a rapidly evolving aviation landscape, particularly as Paris strives to maintain its status as the world’s leading tourist destination. With nearly 47 million visitors in 2015, the challenge of enhancing traveler satisfaction has become paramount, especially in the face of intensifying competition from other major European capitals and emerging hub airports.
De Romanet's strategic vision focuses on transforming Paris airports into world-class travel hubs that not only meet but exceed passenger expectations. This includes spearheading key projects aimed at modernizing infrastructure, improving operational efficiency, and enhancing the overall passenger experience. His commitment to sustainability is also evident, as he champions initiatives that reduce the environmental impact of airport operations while promoting eco-friendly practices within the aviation sector.
In addition to his role at Groupe ADP, De Romanet serves as Property Manager and Vice-chairman of the board of TAV Havalimanlari Holding A.S., a leading airport operator in Turkey. This dual role enriches his expertise in airport management and development, allowing him to leverage best practices from diverse markets to benefit Paris airports. His extensive experience in governance and strategic management, coupled with a deep understanding of the aviation industry, positions him as a pivotal figure in shaping the future of air travel in Paris and beyond. Through his leadership, Groupe ADP is poised to not only retain its competitive edge but also redefine the standards of excellence in airport operations globally.
