Embarking on a Digital Journey!

  • Commenced this professional voyage at a leading Web 1.0 company, navigating the evolving landscape throughout the 2000s.

  • Gratitude fills me as I became part of one of the fastest-growing Web 2.0 startups, honing my execution skills throughout the dynamic 2010s.

  • Presently, I am immersed in the video realm at Madhive, dedicated to bridging the gap between Linear TV and Digital!

What lies ahead?

  • An unprecedented surge in content production.

  • Increased fragmentation across screens, devices, and streaming platforms.

  • The convergence of traditional and modern media.

  • Television is undergoing a Renaissance, serving as a beacon for advertisers (endemically brand safe and premium, with targeting and measurability, and offering scale), enlightening end customers (free content supported by ads, premium choices), and empowering programmers and publishers (an upscale alternative to Display and Mobile).

Anticipating another decade filled with exciting challenges and opportunities!

TESTIMONIALS

What they're saying

mxz_edited.jpg

"I hired Luc to drive international expansion for Dailymotion and he has done just that. He introduced processes to ensure multiple sites in multiple languages and countries are market-relevant in their approach and content. Drawing on his experience in finance, he formulates business plans that work. As a result, Dailymotion is no longer just 'the French YouTube'. He helps form the approach, is an excellent communicator, pro-active and takes appropriate initiative, is extremely loyal and has an outstanding level of ethics. He is intelligent and cosmopolitan and hires like-minded people with the same values and complementary skill-sets. Luc doesn't 'play' politics (yet understands the game) but is a team player who wants the team to win. In short, Luc gets the job done with minimal fuss, friction and cost - you can always rely on him. It's always a pleasure to work with Luc and I look forward to doing so again in the future."
