Miguel Suqué Mateu

businessman

Miguel Suqué Mateu was a prominent Catalan businessman and cultural figure, best known for leading the Peralada Group, which encompassed a diverse range of businesses including wineries, hotels, restaurants, and casinos. Born into a family with deep roots in Catalonia's cultural scene, he was the son of Carmen Mateu and Arturo Suqué, founders of the Peralada Festival. Suqué studied law and joined the family business in 1993, where he expanded its operations and was involved in launching high-end electric vehicles under the Hispano Suiza brand, a company founded by his great-grandfather. His recent passing at the age of 63 was a significant loss for the Catalan bourgeoisie, with many, including government officials, acknowledging his contributions to both the economy and the cultural landscape of the region.
