About

As Head of Mission at Talents Plus Conseils in the SME and Acceleration Department. My daily routine is punctuated by training and sharing experiences with entrepreneurs. I’m equipped to draw up business plans, put together financing applications and help entrepreneurs negotiate with banks, microfinance institutions and now investment funds. Acting as a mentor to entrepreneurs will enable me to put at their disposal all the expertise of over 14 years’ experience (Banks and SAE).

My involvement in these projects highlights my expertise in creating pedagogical content and providing strategic support, helping
