About Benjamin

I am a specialist in project management and the development of innovative economic models, particularly social ones. I combine creativity/innovation in business creation with the rigor of project management and corporate finance.
I have 5 years of experience as a functional finance consultant at Accenture and 10 years in the development of a company creating innovative real estate complexes (youth hostels, intergenerational residences, offices, and third places). I am also the president of a 15-bed rural gite that acts as a third place to revitalize the region.
