In the early and mid-1960s, Pasquier worked for Bull, a subsidiary of General Electric. When GE lost interest in developing mainframes and “big” business machines, he left the company, and in 1968, Pasquier, François Odin and Leo Gantelet opened Sopra Group operations in Annecy, France. The young company participated in the creation of the IT Services industry. It developed IT services offerings in the banking, utilities, services, telecom, retail, and public sectors, and proprietary solutions for the banking, human resources, and real estate sectors. Internal growth and client demand spurred the establishment of numerous agencies in all major French cities. By 1985, Sopra Group began expanding into other European countries, and in 1990, the company was listed on the Paris Bourse.
