About Romain

With several years of experience in sales and engineering, my professional journey has been marked by a passion for developing new business and product segments.
At Eco-Adapt, I spearheaded a new OEM partnership division, leveraging my expertise in industrial machinery to create customized connected AI solutions across various sectors.
My commitment to innovation is evident in the pilot projects I managed, which resulted in long-term contractual commitments and the integration of predictive maintenance and energy monitoring technologies.
My technical and commercial supervision of these projects reflects my ability to align client expectations with product development, ensuring seamless transitions from pilot phases to recurring orders.
