His most famous investment is Gucci, this he fought bitterly with Bernard Arnault (owner of LVMH) for more than 5 years
When he was 69, he transfer his business to his son, Francois-Henri Pinault. Here is picture of Henri.
Henri changed the name of his company from PPP to Kering
Since retiring, he created new Museum such as Palazzo Grassi in Venice
I looked up the meaning of Grassi, it means "fat" in Italy.
He has the world's largest collection of contemporary arts.
