Assaad was only in his mid-twenties when he and his brother started a publishing business in 1994. Working hard on developing their capacity and knowledge in the field, they finally started their successful story in 1996 when the now notorious Mondanité magazine first came out, reckoning there was a need for an upscale social magazine for an upscale society. To date, Mondanité is the top publication in this niche, continuing to inform and entertain its readership like no other.
Today, Assaad is the general manager of GPN holding, a company specializing in publishing, in Lebanon and the Middle East, also known for producing Mondanité in several countries in the region.
He is also the general manager of OMG, a company branching in various sectors, including in outdoor and indoor billboard signage, steel industry and printing, in Lebanon, the Gulf and Africa.
His responsibilities are the day to day management that includes an overview on the business and coordination between the different departments and companies. And in those areas, there is no substitute for talent and experience.
