« AI makes excellent those who already know how to do. »

Three skills make the difference in the age of AI:

  1. 01Knowing how to feed it
  2. 02Knowing what to ask it
  3. 03Knowing how to assess its output

Where do you want to start ?

From the talk that sparks it to the engagement that embeds it. Three formats, one goal: that it still holds once I am gone.

Talks and Seminars

Half a day to a full day

No more presentations where the whole room nods along and remembers nothing. I demystify AI, hold it against your own work, and everyone leaves with something they can use the next morning. For your seminars, conventions and executive committees.

Live demos and examples drawn from your own sector, every single time.

  • Opening or closing keynote
  • Seminars and conventions
  • Executive committees
  • Available in English

Full AI Audit

1 month

Before deploying anything, find out where you actually stand. One month opening the hood team by team, measuring what is already happening, and leaving you with work ranked by gain and effort rather than a list of good intentions.

  • Interviews with every team
  • Mapping of processes and data
  • Inventory of existing AI use, sanctioned and unsanctioned alike
  • Work ranked by real gain and by effort
  • Findings presented to the executive committee
Request an audit

Full AI Implementation

6 to 12 months

The audit, then everything that comes after. I take on the AI lead role inside your company: I design the tools, deploy them, train your teams to use them, and stay until it all runs without me.

  • The full AI audit is included
  • Custom software built around your processes
  • Automation of repetitive work
  • AI agents deployed, then supervised
  • Hands-on onboarding and team upskilling
  • I act as your company’s AI lead

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Seminars last half a day or a full day, depending on your goals. They can be delivered on-site or by video. Formats are flexible: awareness, hands-on workshop, or both.

For mid-sized companies that know AI matters but have no idea where to start. In one month I open the hood team by team, and you leave with work ranked by real gain and effort rather than a list of good intentions. It is also the natural starting point for a full implementation.

None. My sessions are designed for all levels, from complete beginners to already-initiated profiles. The approach is pragmatic and business-oriented, not technical.

I work across all sectors: banking and insurance (Crédit Agricole, MACSF), agriculture and cooperatives (Terrena, Avril, LCA), industry (Safran, EDF), wine (Nicolas Feuillatte, Rhonéa), construction (FFB), services, public sector...

You fill in the form at the bottom of the page, and I get back to you within 48h. We have a first 30-minute call to understand your context, your challenges and your AI maturity.

Both. Talks and seminars work on site or over video. For the audit and the implementation we alternate: team interviews and findings sessions are far better in person, while the rest of the follow-up works fine remotely.

Each engagement is tailored to your context, format and duration. The simplest way: let’s talk for 30 minutes and I’ll send you a clear, detailed proposal right after.

Yes. I’m based in Paris but work all over France, and occasionally internationally. Many of my clients are in the regions: Provence, Brittany, Occitanie, Centre, Rhône-Alpes, North...
