I then launched and led the French subsidiary, scaling it to a 40-person team while driving the entire strategic and operational roadmap. Key responsibilities & achievements: 🚀 Business model design: market validation through client iterations, building a scalable service with strong environmental impact. 🇫🇷 Launch and management of the French subsidiary: built a local operational team, established a repair facility, and scaled up rapidly. 🧩 Full strategic and operational leadership: oversaw industrial operations, commercial development, marketing, HR, and finance. 📊 Growth and performance management: implemented KPIs, developed acquisition strategies, and optimized internal processes. 👥 Team leadership: recruited and empowered a 40-person team focused on impact, autonomy, and execution. 🌍 Energy transition enabler: developed a business model reducing tech waste by extending battery life. Start-up recognition and ecosystem milestones: 💶 €1M seed fundraising to support scale-up. 🏆 Winner of the European Start-up Prize for Mobility, a major European recognition. 📍 Selected for Moove Lab (Station F) – the leading mobility accelerator in France. 🌟 Featured in “5 Vies” by OnlyLyon as a key regional innovation leader. 📰 Strong media presence: covered by Les Échos, La Tribune, BFM TV, Le Progrès, and more.
