About me

I was born in the east side of France, a small city named Behren Les Forbach, which has a poverty rate of 35% (2022) and was the poorest city in France.

The past situation gave me the energy to become a successful entrepreneur.My first success was Hivency, a platform specializing in micro-influence. During those 5 years as a CEO, we enabled brands to connect with influencers/consumers conveniently and quickly.

In 2021, Hivency was a 7M€ ARR company with +100 collaborators and 500K influencers in more than 100 countries. Eventually, Hivency was acquired by PSG Equity, marking a major milestone in my entrepreneurial journey.

Following this exit, I launched ZELIQ (The next Centaur), a next-generation Revenue Workspace focused on Sales Intelligence and Sales Engagement. With ZELIQ, we aim to redefine how sales teams operate, empowering them with cutting-edge tools to optimize their strategies and drive growth.
