After studying at the Institute of Higher Electronics (ISEP) in Paris, he stays in Paris for the first three years, the last two to go to Angers. His diploma earned him in 1964 and, consequently, he did so at the Institute of Balloon Physics in Saint-Maur-des-Fossés to study terrestrial magnetism.

In 1965, Thomson entered Paris in the TV company. After the death of his father, in August 1966 he decided to return to the town.

Herrira is one of the founders of the venture capital company in 1980 and president of the Regional Union of the SCOPs of Aquitaine between 1986 and 1996, and has thus been a member of the Economic and Social Council of the Region of Aquitaine.
