On the occasion of the foundation's 20th anniversary celebration, we were able to sit down with the representatives of the founders' current representatives.

Patrick Pruniaux, Co-founder, Chariman and CEO of Sowind Group, representing Girard-Perregaux, shares his vision on how tradition and innovation can work hand in hand to shape the centuries ahead.

He believes that the artisans of tomorrow will carry forward the knowledge passed down from previous generations, while embracing the fusion of machine work, craftsmanship, new materials, and fresh innovations.

For Patrick, the preservation of artistic craftsmanship and watchmaking, combined with the extraordinary human talent that has shaped this industry for centuries, is the key to sustaining both the consistency and the dream of our remarkable industry for generations to come.
