L’Oreal’s Jean-Paul Agon in conversation with David Rubenstein: The Future of Global Business

Feb 20, 2019

As Chairman and CEO of the world’s leading beauty company, with its 34 iconic brands and 89,000 employees in 140 countries, L’Oréal’s Jean-Paul Agon is a giant in global business.

He’s also one of its great forward thinkers, coupling his drive for digital transformation and technology innovation with a commitment to ethics, social responsibility, and sustainability. Agon talks with David Rubenstein—co-founder of the Carlyle Group and one of America’s leading philanthropists—about his strategy of universalization (globalization without uniformization), about running an international corporate giant with the spirit of a start-up, and why in his own words, “The future looks beautiful.”
