Prince Albert II is the link between the digital revolution and the environmental one and he hopes to move our economies onto cleaner paths. Leading by example, Prince Albert has recently signed an agreement with Anne Hidalgo, Mayor of Paris. The Mayor signed as president of the C40 Cities network and Prince Albert II represented the International Olympic Committee, to promote the organization of clean Olympic Games in future cities.

Prince Albert attends CHPG director Patrick Binis Retirement

Prince Albert spoke at CHPG director Patrick Bini’s retirement event. The 66 year old director  passed the torch to Monegasque Benoîte de Sevelinges and will be moving to Nice for his retirement. Prince Albert II added a touch of humour to the farewell by thanking the director for not moving too far, in case Monaco needs him. The sovereign also thanked Patrick Bini for having contributed, not only to the development of the CHPG, but also to the excellence of health care in the Principality.

During his retirement speech, Patrick Bini said he is leaving with the feeling of accomplishment.

Back in July 2008, then deputy director of the CHU de Nice, Patrick Bini was chosen by Prince Albert II to take the reins of the Princess Grace Hospital. Ten years later, he has helped turn the institution into the modern and efficient hospital it is today.
