Portrait of the CEO

Engineer and entrepreneur, passionate about robotics

I am a CentraleSupélec engineer and entrepreneur with over 30 years of experience, spanning aerospace, maritime, automotive, heavy industry, and consumer products.

For the past 14 years, I have dedicated myself fully to robotics—a lifelong passion in which I have become an expert.

As a serial entrepreneur, I have founded and scaled several innovative companies, filed patents, and won multiple innovation awards, with several ventures successfully acquired by major industrial players.
As CTO of Blue Frog Robotics, I led the development of Buddy, one of the few French robots to achieve international success.

In 2020, I founded Ipsum Tek to build Vectur-AI, a global vision for intelligent, sustainable, and human-centric robotics. Together with my team, we are developing two complementary product lines: FLEX CRUISER, designed for Industry 4.0/5.0 and logistics, and ONYRO, addressing sectors that matter deeply to me—healthcare and the Silver Economy.

MY VISION

«I do not dream of a robotic future that is cold and impersonal» 

I believe in robots that empower people—by taking over difficult, repetitive tasks so that humans can focus on what they do best: creating, assisting, caring, and welcoming.

My ambition is clear: to make Ipsum Tek the European leader in intelligent robotics, leveraging technology to address tomorrow’s key economic, demographic, and societal challenges.
