The Comité Vendôme, established in 1936 to unite the leading jewelers of Paris’ Place Vendôme, has unveiled a new leadership structure and governance aimed at reinforcing its influence both in France and internationally. 

The General Assembly, held on November 5,  followed the recent appointment of Renaud Lestringant, managing director of Cartier France & Monaco, as the new president of the Comité Vendôme. 

During the assembly, the Comité Vendôme elected a reinforced executive committee to drive its renewed vision forward. Additionally, the creation of two dedicated commissions—one focused on communication and the other on art & culture— were put into place. 

Alongside Lestringant, the new leadership team includes Stéphane Actis (Groupe GR), as vice president & treasurer, Stéphane Leh Veque (Potel et Chabot) as vice president, head of communication commission, as well as Géraldine de Vulpian (Boucheron), as vice president, head of art & culture commission. 

The Comité Vendôme has around one hundred members, along with six associate members (institutions and museums such as the Ministry of Justice and the Grand Palais), all located around Place Vendôme, Rue de la Paix, Rue de Castiglione, Rue Saint-Honoré, and the surrounding areas.
