About
Osesam

The company combines strong ethics and creativity to design, manage and develop unique projects, from purchase to sale, while also ensuring the highest standards in terms of quality and timelessness.

OUR VALUES

OUTSTANDING SERVICE

This commitment stems from our roots in the luxury sector, where meticulous attention to detail, an unwavering pursuit of perfection, and uncompromising quality standards are second nature. Every project must harness this quest for refinement, with all efforts geared towards producing engaging, stylish work, meeting the requirements of all parties, from investors to partners, users and local stakeholders. We put our investors first, offering them effective, bespoke solutions and cultivating relationships with them based on care, openness and outstanding service.

BOLDNESS

This means having the courage to constantly reinvent real estate conventions and explore new approaches. It’s about fostering a lasting culture of experimentation – drawing inspiration from design, art, emerging technologies – to create ambitious and original concepts. By channeling this boldness, we can spark curiosity and give each project a truly distinctive identity.

INNOVATION

Real estate is undergoing major changes affecting the commercial, residential and hospitality sectors. In response to this, we aim to stay ahead of shifting urban dynamics and evolving user expectations, designing spaces today for tomorrow’s users. We combine art, design and technology to create inspiring architectural experiences. Through this cross-cutting approach, our environmental commitment and appropriate partnerships, we deliver sustainable long-term value to cities and the communities that inhabit them.

DISCIPLINE

We apply a rigorous and stringent approach to each stage of our investment strategy. This includes close scrutiny of acquisition terms, in-depth risk assessments, and a strong focus on value creation for each project. These steps ensure that we safeguard our investors’ capital, while also permanently aligning their interests with ours.

Alain Hortion
Co-Founder
Managing Partner

« Real estate is not just an asset; it is an opportunity to shape, with responsibility and ambition, the future of cities and uses.»

In 2020, Alain co-founded Osesam alongside Stéphane, with the ambition of carrying forward the high standards of excellence cultivated throughout his journey at L Real Estate. Osesam serves family offices and specialized funds as an operating partner, combining strategic acumen with bespoke execution.

In 2008, Alain took part in the creation of L Real Estate (now L Catterton Real Estate), a platform backed by Agache-LVMH. Over the course of fifteen years, he actively contributed to the development of high-end, large-scale mixed-use real estate projects across the United States, Europe, and Asia, representing over €2 billion in assets under management. He led the structuring and execution of transactions, financing strategies, development oversight, and key partner relationships.

Prior to joining Groupe Arnault – LVMH, Alain held senior roles as CFO and executive committee member in three fast-growing European companies. He supported their expansion, culminating in two successful buyouts and a stock market listing.

After graduating from ESSEC Business School (Grande École), Alain began his career as a consultant at EY/Andersen before joining Mazars as a Director, where he led investment advisory services for major clients in Central Europe.

Where might you find Alain? At home, playing a Hungarian Dance four-hands at the piano with his eldest daughter, or Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star with his youngest. On a tennis court in the south of France, taking on challenges from his son. Or in Paris, cycling alongside his wife, ever-curious, inspired by the city’s beauty and always in pursuit of new ventures.

Stéphane Pesic
Co-Founder
Managing Partner

« Real estate is a passionate field in which networking, attention to detail and creativity are combined to bring about outstanding projects. »

In 2007, Stéphane joined Bernard Arnault’s family office (Agache – LVMH), where he sourced and acquired landmark real estate assets—both for long-term hold and value-added strategies—across office, retail, and residential sectors.

Concurrently, he helped establish L Real Estate (today L Catterton Real Estate), a platform backed by Agache-LVMH. During these years, he contributed to the platform’s global expansion by identifying and developing high-end mixed-use projects (shopping mall/residential/office) in support of the growth of LVMH maisons, particularly in markets where the Group’s presence needed strengthening (EMEA).

Stéphane began his international career at Crédit Agricole in Hong Kong, then moved to Defi, Europe’s leading outdoor advertising company, before joining major real estate players such as Caisse des Dépôts, Bouygues Immobilier, and Nexity—where he served as Director of Development—prior to his role at the Agache-LVMH family office.
He holds dual master’s degrees in Public Law and Business Law from Panthéon-Assas (Sorbonne) and a Master’s in Finance from PSL University (Paris Dauphine).

Where might you find Stéphane? In his spare time, you’re likely to find him wandering museums or art and design galleries in Paris or abroad, ever in search of inspiration for his true passion, drawing. A voracious reader, he is also known for his ongoing civic engagement. And if you’ve missed him high up in the Alpine mountains, you may instead find him diving into the ocean’s depths or driving the open road alongside fellow classic-car enthusiasts.

Juan Lasarte
Investment Senior Associate

Between 2018 and 2022, Juan worked in Mata Capital's investments division, where he was involved in around a dozen transactions (acquisitions, sales, asset or share deals) across various asset types (offices, hotels, logistics, health, commerce) in France, mainly involving value-add/opportunistic strategies, worth approximately €250 M in total.
He is a graduate of the École Spéciale des Travaux Publics (ESTP) and holds an MSc in International Real Estate & Finance (University of Glasgow).

If he's not bitten off more than he can chew with his latest sporting challenge, you can usually find Juan enjoying some quality time with his friends, combining sports, outdoor pursuits and relaxation. You might also catch him in Paris enjoying all the good things the French capital has to offer with his friends.

Clément Delamotte
Directeur des Projets

Before joining OSESAM, Clément was involved in around a dozen transactions spanning five years in the Offices – Development & Major Projects team at VINCI Immobilier. In this role, he supervised all development phases (off-plan property purchasing, real estate development contracts, delegated project management, etc.) on behalf of private or semi-public institutional stakeholders. Clément is a graduate of the École Spéciale des Travaux Publics (ESTP).

You'll generally find Clément bouldering, dancing at a music event, or outdoors indulging his passion for any sport you can practice on a board or skis. When not on a long-distance train ride to discover a new city, you'll probably find him sitting with his friends outside a Paris café setting the world to rights.
