About Carole

With over 18 years of experience in the digital sector, first in the non-profit sector and then in a large group, and with dual expertise in public affairs and digital law, I help organizations secure their development in a complex regulatory and political environment, both in France and at the European Union level.
I intervene particularly on issues related to combating illicit content, child protection, regulation of online platforms, and cybersecurity.

I offer comprehensive support, from defining influence strategy to its concrete implementation with identified key contacts: political and legislative monitoring and analysis, prioritization of actions to be taken, development of contact plans, drafting of positions, amendments, and responses to consultations, preparation of meetings/hearings, and advocacy of messages to public decision-makers and regulatory authorities.
