Lionel Beltrando

Technical and strategic consultant specialized in blockchain and emerging technologies, I assist companies and financial institutions in consulting, architecture, and audit missions — from the exploration phase to production. My positioning is based on a rare combination: an excellent academic background — PhD in Computer Science from Sorbonne University, with a thesis on the design of low-energy blockchain protocols for the financial sector — and nearly 7 years of practical field experience through concrete missions at Thales, Archos, and Finaxys. This dual culture of research and operations allows me to rigorously address both technical subjects — Solidity smart contract development, protocol architecture, decentralized system audits — and more strategic issues: technological choices, feasibility assessment, decision support. I also train technical and business teams on blockchain, with a pedagogical approach built over time and adapted to various audiences. Passionate about artificial intelligence, I closely follow its advancements and their practical applications in business — especially at the intersection with decentralized systems, a field of innovation that I naturally integrate into my thoughts and missions.
