RESUME

I am engineer specialized in Multimedia . During ten years of experience in several IT service companies I lived four transformations on Internet:
- in 1997 the creation of the e-commerce,
- in 1999 the first projects of on-line banking systems,
- in 2003 the development of the e-administration
- and in 2007 the explosion of the citizen journalism.
In 1996, after my ESIEA engineer I worked on Mosaic (the first internet browsers) in the Thomson laboratory of research.
I joined Capgemini in 1997 as design engineer. In 1999 I participated to the creation of a marketplace dedicated to on-line brokers. In 2002 I managed several projects for the French administration on Internet. In March, 2007, I co-founded Rue89 with Pierre Haski, Pascal Riché, Laurent Mauriac and Arnaud Aubron.
In May 2007 I took the responsability of the new media and Internet team in the France 24 IT department.
