Back to original languageAbout Alexis
Senior Legal Counsel for tech scale-ups, with deep expertise in iGaming and esports.
For 3 years, I have held the position of Head of Legal at Pandascore, a B2B leader in esports data and odds, where I built and managed the legal function. Previously, I spent 9 years at Alstom and SimCorp negotiating tech and SaaS contracts in international and regulated environments.
What I do best:
✅ Tech & Commercial Contracts: Full lifecycle management of B2B contracts, primarily data licenses, SaaS, MSA, DPA, SoW, SLA, NDA. Over 10 years of unlocking complex deals in tandem with sales teams. Certified Contract Manager (WorldCC, 2021). B2C legal documents (T&Cs, terms of use, privacy policies, acceptable use policies).
✅ iGaming & Esports: Expertise in contracting with sportsbooks, aggregators, and affiliates in iGaming and related fields (esports, prediction markets, sweepstakes, DFS, etc.) and in iGaming regulatory compliance (KYC, regulatory filings, license applications, and monitoring legislative developments).
✅ EU Regulatory Compliance: Data protection specialist (CIPP/E certified) and AI Act. Good command of adjacent frameworks (DSA, DMA, MiCA).
✅ AI-fluent: I leverage AI agents and tools (Claude Cowork, Notion, etc.) to augment and automate legal work.
✅ Solo Lawyer: I have built and managed the daily legal needs of a 50-person scale-up: training, litigation, ad-hoc IP/tax/labor law matters, supplier negotiations.
🌍 15 years of international experience (France, Canada, Vietnam, Saudi Arabia, Denmark), comfortable in multi-jurisdictional and cross-cultural environments.
Always open to discussing interesting freelance opportunities in iGaming, esports, fintech, or AI. Contact me via DM.
