Freelancer profile translated to English.

Description

I founded and then sold several high-growth technology companies in the fields of digital transformation, Artificial Intelligence, and environment/CSR.

I recently took over ProOrca, an industrial company that manufactures drumsticks (musical instrument) made in France, with artisanal know-how and an unparalleled CSR commitment for over 40 years.

Before that, I worked for over 10 years in international finance (LBO/private equity) and founded a mergers and acquisitions consulting firm.

For over 10 years, I have been a board member of listed companies in the industry, construction, finance, and environment/energy sectors.

I also act as a business mediator (resolution of commercial and social conflicts, between partners, with clients/suppliers...) at CMAP (Center for Mediation and Arbitration of Paris).

I graduated from ESCP (2001) and MIT Sloan (2018).
