About Michael

Experienced commercial with over 10 years of experience in IT and a significant client network in France and Europe. Throughout my career, I have covered the entire IT spectrum from IT infrastructure (Telecom, storage) to Software and SaaS solutions (Data Management, ETL, NoSQL databases). Partners I have worked with particularly appreciate my entrepreneurial spirit combined with a team spirit focused on performance. I have already supported several startups in their development/growth strategy in France and Europe, the latest being Unifox (a trading bot publisher for cryptocurrencies).
