“We are masters of our own destiny; we have to make encounters happen.”
Emmanuel Sauvage has reinvented the conventions of luxury hospitality with a deeply personal, resolutely urban concept attuned to the rhythm of the city and of life.
As co-founder of Evok Collection, he has transformed each project into a vibrant place where art, design and hospitality meet. A journey shaped by pivotal encounters, bold decisions and constant innovation has enabled Evok to establish itself among the most remarkable destinations in Paris and beyond.
In this episode, Emmanuel reflects on:
- The importance of the people he has met and of art throughout his journey.
- The value of hard work.
- Intuition and the Brach phenomenon: finding the right niche at the right time.
- Evok Collection’s vision in the face of challenges, particularly during the COVID crisis.
- Growth strategies, locations and fundraising.
- His departure from the Evok group and the question of change: “You must never stay too long.”
Emmanuel Sauvage’s dictionary of audacity invites us to reinvent ourselves, never stop questioning what we take for granted and take charge of our own destiny.
