After being sworn in as a lawyer in Lyon in 2014, he began his career in Switzerland, working in the legal departments of Big Four firms, where he created and led the team dedicated to new technology law for one of them.

When foreign national laws are relevant, he mobilizes his network of foreign colleagues and academics to anticipate and manage reforms impacting the digital sector.
