PUBLICIS GROUPE S.A.
PUBLICIS GROUPE S.A. is a Public Limited Company registered in France under 54208060100017, and its current status with INPI (Institut National de la Propriété Industrielle) is active. Its registered address on file is PARIS, France. 1 shareholder is on record for PUBLICIS GROUPE S.A., and since every one of them is a company rather than an individual, this particular filing does not on its own establish an ultimate beneficial owner (UBO) — identifying one would mean tracing the ownership of each shareholding company in turn. This profile is sourced directly from INPI (Institut National de la Propriété Industrielle) and was last updated on 23 September 2026.

Directors and officers of PUBLICIS GROUPE S.A.
Three of the 5 officer records shown for PUBLICIS GROUPE S.A. are current appointments, filed with INPI (Institut National de la Propriété Industrielle). Simon Marcel Badinter and Antonella Mei both serve as Administrator; Elisabeth Bleustein Blanchet serves as Other.

Management authority at PUBLICIS GROUPE S.A. sits with these individuals, not with shareholders, who are covered separately and hold ownership rather than control. The source filing doesn't specify representation authority — whether officers can act individually or must sign jointly to bind the company — so that detail isn't available here.

Data availability
Those 37 subsidiaries span France, South Africa, United Arab Emirates, Canada, Lebanon, Morocco, and 12 more jurisdictions, though this list should not be read as complete — subsidiaries only become visible here where shareholder data has actually been filed with a register, so holdings in jurisdictions without that filing simply won't appear. Seven of the 37 go a level deeper still, with their own further subsidiaries recorded beneath them — additional ownership layers this view doesn't expand.
