Background

About Peter Guillon

I am an international CEO with over 25 years of leadership driving growth, transformation, and global expansion in sectors such as energy, aviation, logistics and airport infrastructure. Throughout my career I have delivered measurable growth — sustained double-digit revenue gains, successful M&A integrations, and large-scale organizational turnarounds. I specialize in transforming national networks into scalable, high-performing platforms serving tens of thousands of people annually. As CEO of one of Europe’s leading professional training groups, I built a network of 38 centers and 14 campuses in France, serving more than learners per year. Under my leadership, we achieved over 60% top-line growth, significant EBITDA improvements, and deeper operational efficiency through digital transformation and strategic acquisitions. I act as a trusted cross-border advisor between European and American business ecosystems. I support companies and investors in expansion strategy, market entry, and value creation while mitigating risk. From my current presence in Chicago, I continue building transatlantic growth initiatives, connecting Europe and North America and engaging with U.S. business, educational, and innovation networks. Areas of Expertise • International Growth & Market Expansion • M&A Strategy & Post-Integration Leadership • Operational Turnaround & EBITDA Optimization • Digital Transformation (CRM, ERP, BI) • Cross-Border Partnerships & Investor Relations • Executive Leadership, Governance & High-Performance Culture I believe strategy must convert to disciplined execution, and that true leadership combines clarity, energy, and measurable impact across borders.
