TEAM

We work closely with a carefully selected team of professionals in whom we have complete confidence.

Paul Imhof

Paul Imhof joins the “same group” as a partner. Kickflip, backflip, hardflip, fakie 540°, these are just a few examples of tricks that are no longer unknown to Paul Imhof. After more than 4 years of good and loyal service within the leading company in action sports in the Central Valais and more particularly as Director, Paul decided to change activity to launch himself in the management of sportsmen specialised in Urban sports.

Nicolas Planchard

Joining “Same Group” felt like a natural choice for him. With his academic experience, knowledge of the American administration, and
four years of competitive sports in the USA, he takes on the role of Director of Same Dream USA. He has acquired all the necessary experience to help young athletes who wish to become excellent students while continuing to progress as athletes. His role within the company will be to find a university for each athlete, but most
importantly, to find the best university based on the athlete’s profile. His ultimate goal is to actively contribute to making the dream of every young athlete who reaches out to us a reality, thus constituting the first major step in their athletic and professional development.

Youri Cansell

Born in Metz, France in 1987, Youri Cansell has since created hundreds of murals in over 24 countries on 4 continents, gaining international recognition.

In 2023, he moved to Crans-Montana and joined Same Group as an International Art Consultant.

It’s a pleasure to put my 15-year career experience at the service of Same Group, in order to lead the Group’s projects in the artistic field to the best of my ability. It’s also an honor to be able to support the development of a young Valais company, to advise it on its projection and development abroad, and to work together on the realization of ambitious projects of international scope.
