Experienced in operating at board level across various sectors (hospitality, law firm, logistics, tech, B2B), he excels at mentoring teams with an ingrained passion for excellence and innovation.
After graduating from the French engineering university Centrale Supélec in 2001, David began his career as a founding shareholder of Poweo. In 2008, David founded a start-up in the field of digital concierge services, John Paul, a technology enabled B2B service player, which then became the worldwide leader in premium loyalty . Since its inception, John Paul has been characterized by forward thinking and technological advancement. David sought to define John Paul’s role not only as the bridge between private concierge services and businesses, but as an active revolutionizer of the industry, reinventing concierge know-how with the tools of today’s Digital Age. This vision has not ceased to fascinate and attract the biggest companies to drive long-term loyalty and advocacy with their clients. In 2016 the business was acquired by Accor.
