À propos

Entrepreneur passionné depuis plus de 15 ans, j'ai développé plusieurs entreprises sur les marchés BtoC et BtoB. J'ai effectué 2 sorties importantes. Aujourd'hui, j'investis dans des projets de start-up. Je connais parfaitement les attentes des investisseurs providentiels et des sociétés de capital-risque et j'ai développé un vaste réseau de professionnels et d'investisseurs. Mon objectif est de partager la riche expérience que j'ai acquise en accompagnant des dizaines de startups, de l'idéation à la série B en passant par les stratégies d'adaptation des produits et du marché, en passant par les stratégies de mise sur le marché et d'expansion des ventes. Personnellement, je suis passionné par les questions technologiques.

Intégration de l'IA : je cherche constamment à intégrer des solutions d'intelligence artificielle pour automatiser les processus, améliorer l'efficacité et créer des avantages concurrentiels pour les startups avec lesquelles je travaille. Je suis optimiste et j'ai l'ambition de faire bouger les choses.

Investor & Operating Partner
Unicraft VC
January 2023 - Today - 9 months

As an Investor and Operating Partner at Unicraft VC and its Venture Studio, I am passionate about identifying and supporting promising startups in the tech sector, particularly those focused on AI and sustainable growth. My role spans from the ideation phase to market launch, including sales strategy and growth.

🤝 I closely collaborate with founders, leveraging my expertise in product launches, sales strategies, and growth optimization to help companies stand out in a competitive market and achieve significant milestones.

💡 Ideation Phase: I work closely with founders from the early stages of their projects. This involves brainstorming sessions, market analyses, and validating business assumptions to refine the idea into a viable concept.

📈 Business Plan and Pitch Deck Creation: Once the idea is validated, I guide teams in crafting robust business plans and persuasive pitch decks. These documents not only attract investors but also provide clear direction for the company.

🚀 Launch Strategy: I oversee the planning and execution of the product or service launch. This includes defining KPIs, selecting distribution channels, and implementing targeted marketing campaigns.

🛒 Sales Strategy: I develop and implement effective sales strategies, ranging from lead generation to conversion and customer retention. My goal is to optimize the sales process to maximize revenue.

📊 Growth Optimization: After the launch, I continue to work on optimizing growth channels, using data analytics and AI techniques to improve customer acquisition and retention.

🤖 AI Integration: I am constantly looking to integrate artificial intelligence solutions to automate processes, enhance efficiency, and create competitive advantages for the startups I work with.

🌍 My goal is to create an ecosystem of companies that are not only financially successful but also bring about positive changes in the world.
