About Pierre

Supporting entrepreneurial projects (over 80 startups in fashion, education, e-commerce, social entrepreneurship, impact) for 6 years, I managed two incubators and accelerators on a permanent contract (Look Forward by Showroomprivé and Orange Fab Madagascar).

I am currently a financial analyst for Made For All, an impact family office investing in seed/pre-Series A startups.

Originally a jack-of-all-trades with experience in many areas (marketing, communication, operations, events, finance), I now specialize in creating, writing, and optimizing pitch decks, business plans, financial modeling, and can assist you with your strategic challenges and fundraising, including connecting you with funders (Business Angels, Family Offices, VC Funds).

    Orange Fab Madagascar is a startup accelerator (free and non-dilutive) aiming to create commercial partnerships between startups and Orange Madagascar Business Units, to help them improve their projects and develop their business by accelerating their growth and visibility.

    Within Orange Fab, I managed all activities with the support of Orange Madagascar's support teams (Media, CSR, Accounting, and Finance).

    OPERATIONS
    - Implementation of the recruitment and selection process for the 4 startups supported in season 2
    - Personalized support (2 to 4 hours per week) for each startup, particularly on Communication (SEO, SEA, Social Media Management, Events), Marketing and UX, Business Plan and financial projections, and Global Strategy.
    - Daily management of the coworking space dedicated to startups

    COMMUNICATIONS
    - Management of the program's blog and social networks
    - Collaboration with PR on Orange Fab's media presence
    - Organization of in-person and online events: participation in startup juries (PASS Program, Falling Walls Labs...), organization of networking events, round tables, etc.
    - Implementation of internal training days (approx. 20 days for Orange startups) or external days (participation in +15 skills development days for entrepreneurs)

    OTHER:
    - Relations with the accelerator's Technical and Financial Partners (GIZ, USAID, SMTP Group, AUF)

    In addition to my duties as Orange Fab Manager, from the end of 2020, I took on a new responsibility as ODC Manager for Madagascar.

    Orange Digital Center, an initiative launched globally by Orange and supported by the BMZ (German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development), is a network of digital skills development and support centers launched across Africa. From coding training to entrepreneurship creation, they cover a wide range of activities. Free and open to all, these centers include:
    - A solidarity FabLab
    - The Orange Fab program
    - A presence of Orange Digital Ventures Africa
    - A free coding school open to all

    I therefore managed the preparation for the launch of this center in Antananarivo, with several missions:
    - Monitoring of development and equipment work (FabLab, IT equipment, etc.) for the various spaces, including launching public tenders.
    - Establishment of the organizational chart and recruitment of various resources (7 positions created)
    - Definition with Orange's IT teams of the training program applied within the Coding School.
    - Monitoring the project's progress with partners, particularly Orange Tunisia, Orange Group, the various Malagasy partner universities, and GIZ.
    - Preparation of communication plans related to the launch and rationalization of Orange's CSR communications.
