Arnaud Nourry, the chairman and chief executive of Hachette Livre discusses the terms impasse with Amazon and the future for print and 'e'
Hachette Livre will move into its new purpose-built offices in Vanves (on the outskirts of Paris) on April 7. Even though the new building is very elegant, isn’t it a handicap for the group to be based on the periphery of the capital ?The group will remain loyal to its traditional diversity since numerous subsidiaries will remain in the heart of Paris. For the teams now based at the quai de Grenelle in western Paris, the move to Vanves will not make much difference : the new building is very close to the metro, while the France 3 television station and publishers Bayard and La Martinière are not far away. For the group, which owns the land, it is fantastic to be able to embark on an adventure that will last at least 50 years. Finally, the quai de Grenelle, where we have never really felt at home, will have been a mere interlude between our historic head office on Boulevard Saint-Germain that dates back to the 19th century and the new building.
