Profil
Quatrième homme le plus riche d'Australie en 2011. James Packer est le fils de Kerry Packer, ex-magnat de la presse, décédé en 2005.
James Packer n'a pas fait d'études supérieures. Son père, persuadé que seule l'expérience forge les hommes d'affaires, l'envoie faire ses armes dans une des sociétés du groupe.
Un parcours sans histoires jusqu'en mai 2001 où James Packer, alors directeur de la société australienne One.Tel doit se résoudre à liquider la société, devenue insolvable. L'aventure aura coûté 300 millions de dollars australiens au groupe familial, premier actionnaire avec 23,3% des parts.
A la mort de son père en 2005 , il hérite de l'empire médiatique Publishing & Brodcasting (PBL), Mais James Packer se retire progressivement de l'univers des médias lui préférant celui du divertissement qu'il considère beaucoup plus lucratif.
En 2007, il crée Crown Limited qui reprend les activités de divertissement de Publishing & Brodcasting Limited, propriétaire de Crown Entertainment Complex à Melbourne, le plus grand parc de loisirs de l'hémisphère sud et Burswood Entertainment à Perth.
Il possède également de nombreux casinos au Canada, en Australie et à Las Vegas. En 2007, James Packer conclut une transaction portant sur l'acquisition de trois casinos à Las Vegas.
La branche médias, sera elle baptisée Consolidated Media Holdings. Elle détient 25% de Foxtel, opérateur australien de télévision à péage et 50% de Premier Media Group qui compte d'innombrables titres de presse australiens.
