    February 2022 - Today (4 years and 6 months)
    Paris, France
    We help committed companies to innovate.
    We ensure the success of their responsible innovation projects, thanks to our combined methods of Design Thinking and Collective Intelligence.

    We are a collective of entrepreneurs, consultants, and designers convinced that collective intelligence and experience design should facilitate the ecological transition of organizations.

    We support transition actors in listening to their customers and teams, innovating and refining their service offerings, adapting their model, and asserting their fair ambition.

    We share dozens of years of accumulated experience in consulting and supporting VSEs, SMEs, mid-sized companies, large corporations, groups, associations, and NGOs.

    We have chosen to unite as a collective to provide you with personalized support that is more comprehensive and expert than a freelancer, more agile and transparent than an agency.
    We call upon our network of experts to create a tailor-made team for your project: illustrators, art directors, architects, developers, graphic facilitators...

    Our clients:
    - Impact startups and SMEs
    - Environmental and social NGOs
    - Industries in transition
    - CSR managers with high stakes
    - HR Directors and employee engagement

    Following the merger of PwC and Nealite, I became Design Director at PwC Experience Center.

  • Nealite
    Co-founder, Deputy CEO, Director of Inspiration
    CONSULTING AND AUDITS
    September 2005 - October 2015 (10 years and 1 month)
    Paris, France
    I co-founded Nealite in 2005, a pioneering agency in innovation through service design and user experience, with Jean-François Marti and Benjamin Servet.

    As Deputy CEO, I was responsible for managing the business and relationships with both the agency's major key accounts (SFR, L'Argus, AXA, APEC, Malakoff Médéric, ...) and the most promising pure players and startups (MyFox, Clustree, iZettle, Smokio, Foodchéri, Allociné, Oney, Prestashop, ...).

    As Director of Inspiration, I established and developed sources of inspiration to accelerate innovation within the agency and with our clients:
    • user research (ethnography, interviews and user testing, data analytics)
    • market research (watch, benchmark)
    • exploration (service safari, learning expedition)
    • innovation lab (experimental research, meetups & think tanks)

    I was also responsible for recruiting and managing our talented team, a blend of intelligence and creativity! I also regularly spoke at conferences and schools to promote the practice of design in France (UX Paris, Numa, Service Design Network, Cap Digital, Sciences PO, Ecole de Design de Nantes, ...).

    Our expertise has been recognized with prestigious awards in Paris, London, New York, and Las Vegas (CES Innovation Award, Grand Prix Stratégies, Innovation Award, TOP/COM, TV Connect Awards, …) for mobile, tablet, TV, and connected object services.
