The Europe West region is bringing together 31,000 people, 1,500 partners across 25 countries in Western Europe and some connected African countries. I am also the Global Client Service Partner for a major Telecommunications player and a Senior Partner at EY-Parthenon in France. Previously, I was Co-founder of Greenwich – a former international TMT consulting boutique acquired by EY in 2013 to enhance its strategy and digital capabilities. I launched the business development in emerging markets and was the managing partner of the Paris office. I have also acquired diverse knowledge of transactions, go-to-market and commercial strategies, distribution models, cross channel approaches, and digital / AI transformation - especially in the B2B context. I am passionate about creating value for EY clients and empowering EY people to achieve their full potential.
