Entreprises

• Myself - Director

  2007 - maintenant When I left Belgium for Philippines and Thailand, I decided to work overseas for myself in all areas I could do. I proposed my services in Internet, security, graphics and video. Video editing was also new for me, but I succeeded as cameraman and in editing, with multiple cameras, additional sound and so on. In Thailand, I has been used also as analyst-programmer in Visual Studio / .NET / Foxpro to create alone a big application in client/server. Currently, I develop a SMS/CALLS server to manage mobiles from Internet. From 12 years, I'm still also a monthly book designer and web designer.

• Business Training Belgium - Teacher / consultant

  2006 - 2007 The very big deal!! The first time that I was teacher in computing areas such as Word, Excel, Access, IE and Internet security inside Financial Ministry in Belgium.  Hard job to learn courses on the nights and to give them on the day but the employee’s evaluations are good.  
  This company used me also in some analyst missions.

• Ateliers de la Page Belgium - General Manager

  2002 - 2005 I just came back from Morocco. I had nothing any more and I started from nothing. After 2 years, I had my company (social company shared with the country) with 11 people (including 8 disabled people). The "Ateliers et Editions de la Page"  succeeded in graphics, printing, packaging, websites and above all, books editing. As manager, I had to teach the disabled staff in new graphics technologies and all these people created the biggest book success of this year. The Damenndyn Story. For these books, we created also big website and some merchandising. We made many other books and we worked also so much in packaging, shop bags.

• Revue Générale Belgium - Book designer

  2002 - maintenant From many years, I take care page setting of this monthly book in Belgium. 120 pages in many Word files to import in Adobe Indesign, to produce PDF file, for the printer.

• Cogenav Morocco - General Manager

  1999 - 2002 I arrived in Morocco to teach the staff of a company in vocal servers (paying telephony). This business was starting in Morocco.  I succeeded in this mission and this company still makes money in this business.
  I stayed there to launch for a financial group, a new audiovisual company, working in theatres, DVD distribution, and audio-visual installations for theatres, discotheques, schools. I'm used to work in this area and I'm used to manage people and above all, I'm used to launch company and profit centres. The most difficult was to convince DVD majors to accept to export DVD to Morocco, but my meetings in USA, GB and Paris were a success and Cogenav was the first company importing DVD in Morocco. The second target was to convince The hypermarkets Marjane, sister of Carrefour to sell our DVD... They accepted and they asked us to have representatives in all DVD stores... Business was running on... In the same time, the theatres (cinemas) asked us to find a solution to help them to grow and update they equipment. They needed money. I had a big idea. I go to see all big advertising companies in Casblanca, for Procter & Gamble, Unilever... I organised a large meeting with the main advertising companies and with the main theatre’s owners and I proposed them my new idea about the launch of division for advertising in theatres including hostess in the entrance of cinema, the management and guaranty of advertising planning. All of them agreed. The advertising will comes back to the theatres.

• Cinecom France - General Manager

  1997 - 1999 This company has been created by my previous partners in AST France. It was the second company I had to launch and to manage in audiovisual. This one was working in home cinema, and audio visual system for bars and cafés. It was the time of a world cup of football. Many bars needed projectors.

• AST France - General Manager

  1995 - 1997 I was in France from some time, working as expert freelance in vocal servers (telephony) on Dialogic configuration with Rekoll language. I learned that kind of technology because one of my customers asked me to create such machine. I became quickly famous in this area. Some small companies use that technology to make money with paying telephony. Such machine must run 24/7 else they could lose money. At this time, it was a very good business for me, I had to be available for support any time.
  
  I knew the owners of AST Belgium, ex managers in Ingram Micros. These friends asked me to launch a new subsidiary in France. The goal of this company was the distribution of computers (phones sales) to companies and administrations and the conception of vocal servers (telephony). I launched this company and teach the team in this technology and to sale computers by phone.

• Ingram Micro - Project Manager followed by IT Manager France

  LESQUIN CEDEX 1992 - 1995 Before Softeurop has been bought by Ingram  Micro, Softeurop has several branches in Europe in computers distribution. This company was my one of my suppliers in my previous activity in "Convex Informatique".
  I has been recruited in Softeurop as Analyst-Programmer. My first big job, was to create a credit application to add to an accounting suite. The goal of this application was to allow or to block sales according the credits limits. It was a big challenge. I did not have access to the sources of the accounting programs. I had only access to the database and almost 60 people were working in sales. My application could stop all the activity of the company if it failed. I succeeded and I received award for that. The company asked me to install my credit application in all subsidiaries in Europe.
  Softeurop has been bought by Ingram Micro and my job was to managed the transfer windows accounting system to the IBM system. After, I became the IT Manager of the French branch of Ingram Micro.
