I have been working in the IT industry more than 18 years with a dual profile marketing communication / business development. I have worked in France in sales and marketing positions and set up different businesses before moving to Singapore for living and working. I have built expertise in the IT distribution channel, interfacing all the actors of distribution (vendors, ISV, distributors, Integrators, Vars, reseller, MSP and more recently CSP). I played various kinds of roles in the channel such as distributor, Var, ISV, consulting agency with a European experience. In the past 5 years, I worked on Cloud adoption challenges and helped vendors in their strategy to reach the right partners.
