Résumé
Excited about the transformational power of artificial intelligence and data, and passionate about the business of deep technology that improve people's lives.
I am also engaged in ecosystem and tech community activism, deeply involving myself in initiatives supporting deep tech ecosystems growth in France and in the US.
What I’m most proud of:
• Started two mobile AI (vision) companies, in France and in the US: Realeyes3D and Qipit, and developed them globally. Exited in 2012 (Bandai, Japan)
• Pioneered multiple innovative technology products and applications: document scanning on mobile phones (2002); the first AR game on a smartphone (2004); camera-powered movement detection for mobile UIs (2006)
• Turned around multi-million USD revenue businesses from their death spirals to fresh starts, on three occasions
• Developed and led globally distributed teams (R&D, engineering, marketing, sales, finance) from pre-revenue to market leadership, in organizations ranging from early stage startups to Fortune 500 corporations
• Raised multiple rounds of financing for my own company and for companies I advise
• Co-founded the « Hub FranceIA », a grassroots tech nonprofit aimed at becoming the « operating system » of the European AI ecosystem (www.hub-franceia.fr)
• Co-organized three editions — and counting —of the Kinnernet-Europe un-conference (www.kinnernet-europe.com)
