HOME GROUP CULTURE PROJECTS & ACHIEVEMENTS MEDIA CONTACT OUR VISION What city do we want? How to avoid that urbanization translates into the disappearance of life in the city? How to enable city dwellers to live better in their city? The city is not always a legible territory with a strong identity. It can be deconstructed. The numerous disorders which result from it weaken the social bond and give rise to new challenges: architectural, economic, demographic, social, cultural and ecological. I have been thinking about these questions for over 25 years. Former distribution professional, passionate about the city, I created Groupe Fiminco in 2004. It brings together all the relevant professions in the support of elected officials and local decision-makers in order to make the city smarter, more welcoming, more convivial and more respectful of the environment. Groupe Fiminco has acquired recognized expertise in all stages of real estate development thanks to its understanding of the social and cultural issues of a territory. Our role ? Understand, document, stimulate, adapt, support and become the partner of all the city's stakeholders: elected officials, communities, developers, investors, etc. We have given ourselves the means to achieve this ambition by bringing together committed women and men who interact in multidisciplinarity, complementarity and the sharing of skills. It is a deliberately tightened team, because Groupe Fiminco intends to remain a Group on a human scale, independent and responsive in order to listen to its interlocutors and offer them adapted solutions and tailor-made arrangements.
