En résumé

I graduated from Ecole Polytechnique in Paris and obtained a Masters Degree from Montreal University in Canada. I have 20 years of experience in the telecommunication industry. After eight years with Orange Labs working on radio technologies and international standardization, I was the technical director for large accounts with Orange Business Services for five years. Following my work with Orange, I joined Siradel to run sales and customer operations on wireless network planning and smart city projects, notably in Chile. After starting the first SaaS radio planning tool dedicated to IoT, I joined Semtech in 2016. I am now in charge of LoRa business development in EMEA, building end-to-end solutions for enterprise customers, particularly for the logistics and asset tracking vertical. I speak English, French, Spanish and Catalan.
