About Clémence

Consultant and trainer specialized in tourism, attractiveness, and project development, I support companies, local authorities, and heritage stakeholders in their strategic thinking and development projects.


For nearly ten years, I have been involved in topics related to marketing, communication, customer experience, territorial development, and project management.

My career notably led me to participate in the development of the Domaine de Dampierre-en-Yvelines, which grew from 0 to over 70,000 annual visitors in five years. This experience allowed me to work on various issues: attractiveness, communication, offer development, partnerships, events, and visitor experience.

Today, I support organizations that wish to develop their business, strengthen their attractiveness, better understand their market, or structure a project.

I intervene in particular on:
  • Market research and strategic diagnostics;
  • Development and attractiveness strategies;
  • Tourism and territorial marketing;
  • Marketing and communication plans;
  • Creation or evolution of offers and services;
  • Improvement of customer and visitor experience;
  • Project management and coordination.
In parallel to my consulting activities, I teach students in BTS, Bachelor, and Master programs on topics related to marketing, communication, innovation, entrepreneurship, and project management.

I particularly appreciate projects that combine economic development, tourism, heritage, culture, innovation, and territorial impact.
