L-Acoustics establishes global Real Estate division

L-Acoustics has established a new global Real Estate division under the leadership of Gérald Yven as Global Real Estate Director. This division will oversee L-Acoustics’ investments into its global corporate and industrial real estate portfolio, coordinating major real estate projects from site acquisition and renovations to the design and construction of specialized L-Acoustics spaces such as Creative Studios and Showrooms.

This centralized approach aims to ensure consistent implementation of L-Acoustics brand identity and operational standards across all global locations. “The establishment of the global Real Estate division represents a critical step in supporting our growth trajectory”, says Hervé Guillaume, co-CEO at L-Acoustics. “By centralizing our real estate strategy, we can ensure that every facility - from our corporate headquarters to our international studios - reflects our commitment to innovation and provides an optimal environment for our teams to deliver solutions to our clients.”

Recent accomplishments under the new division include the establishment of a global corporate office in Massy, France, which has freed up space at the original Marcoussis headquarters to focus on R&D activities, and the creation of an L-Acoustics Creative Studio at Rock Lititz where sound engineers can learn and perfect mixing techniques using L-Acoustics L-ISA immersive technology.

The team has also overseen expansions of production facilities in France and Germany, as well as the opening of a second L-Acoustics Innovation Center in London, plus improvements to the Westlake Village global headquarters to enhance comfort and efficiency. Additionally, solar panels are being incorporated into all company-owned buildings in France, with the goal of achieving net-zero energy use.

Gérald Yven brings extensive finance and project management expertise to his role, with previous experience in facility management at Generali and Unibail-Rodamco-Westfield. His team includes Nassieba Adref, Head of Maintenance Operations, to ensure smooth daily operations of facilities worldwide with in-house teams and local facility management partners, and Camille Bertrand, Real Estate Project Manager, who pilots major renovation projects and new space development when L-Acoustics acquires or leases new locations.

"Our centralized real estate strategy allows us to create spaces that foster collaboration, innovation, and well-being for our teams, which directly translates to better service and support for our clients and partners”, says Yven. “We’re also committed to responsible facility management that minimizes waste and optimizes spending, ensuring every facility decision we make is guided by both sustainability and how it enables L-Acoustics to better serve the global audio community.”
