Who is Hugh Quennec?

Hugh Quennec is the current principal owner and president of Geneva, Switzerland's two main sports teams: Genève-Servette HC and Servette FC. Born in Montreal, Quebec to a Swiss mother and a French father, he had been the president of GSHC for a while when Servette FC began experiencing significant financial difficulties in early 2012. He agreed to purchase Servette FC for a symbolic fee of 1.00 CHF in March 2012. Quennec was able to successfully turn around the club's financial difficulties, avoiding bankruptcy and ensuring the club would continue to participate in the Swiss Super League for the 2012-13 season.
