About William

I help companies turn their projects into concrete results through expertise in strategy, finance, and business development.

Graduated from ESCP and Sorbonne (Grande École & Financial Engineering programs), I worked in investment funds (Batipart, Courbet), then in large groups (Dior, Kering) in strategic positions. This background allows me to bring clients a dual analytical, sectoral, and operational perspective.

My main areas of expertise:
  • Strategic Consulting: development of growth strategies, new offering development, market research, cost optimization, and pricing policies.
  • Corporate Finance: financial modeling, business plans, cash flow forecasting, fundraising research and structuring.
  • Data & Performance: database creation and utilization, dashboard creation, advanced analysis to drive business and identify performance levers.
  • Operational Support: support for general and financial management, implementation of steering tools, preparation for fundraising and due diligence.
-> My goal: to help you make the right strategic decisions, secure your funding, and accelerate your company's performance.
