#1 Ayodele Ikuesan, Olympic 100m and 4x100m relay athlete and Business Transformation Manager - Talan Consulting 🏃‍♀️

🎓 After graduating from Kedge in 2011 with a Master's degree in Biology from the Sorbonne and training at Sciences PO, I started out in marketing research and clinical trials before moving into consulting. As a manager at Talan Consulting, I've been working on corporate change management projects for the past 10 years.

✨ Committed to sport, I am co-president of the AFLD athletes' committee, a member of the CNOSF athletes' commission, and deputy mayor in charge of health in the 18th arrondissement of Paris. Passionate about people, I combine consulting expertise with a commitment to society. 🤝

#2 Jérôme Petit, Deputy CEO - Bolloré Logistics 🚚

🎓 A graduate of KEDGE and INSEAD, I joined the Bolloré Group in 1990. For over 25 years in Asia, I launched and managed subsidiaries, rising to the position of CEO Asia-Pacific in 2004, strengthening Bolloré Logistics' presence in 24 countries. Returning to France in 2016, I was appointed CEO for Africa, overseeing logistics operations in 48 countries. 🌏

After the sale of African activities to MSC in 2022, I rejoined Bolloré Logistics as Deputy CEO in May 2023 at the Paris headquarters. My management spans international transport, contract logistics, global supply chain and industrial projects in various sectors. 📦

#3 Érika Le Noan, President of Dammann Frères, President of Alliance 7 🍵

As former Managing Director at illy and current President of Dammann Frères, based in Eure-et-Loir, I oversee the creation of high-end tea blends, focusing on the mission of strengthening the bond between humans and plants. 🌱

At the same time, as President of Alliance 7, I represent sweet, savoury and specialist nutrition. As Vice President of STEPI, I contribute to the tea and herbal infusions sector. As aboard member of Area Centre Val de Loire and ANIA, I am committed to the agri-food industry. My honors include Chevalier de la Légion d'Honneur and Officier de l'Ordre du Mérite. 🎖️

#4 Clément Pourtal, President and Founder The Blue Quest 🌊

🦈 Passionate about the Ocean and sharks, I've always had the chance to work close to the ground during my studies at KEDGE and then in a communications agency in various foundations. In 2017, I founded The Blue Quest with the aim of raising awareness among as many people as possible about protecting the Ocean by producing impactful documentaries. 🎥

Thanks to my actions and commitment, many marine protection projects around the world are developing and becoming better known. In 2020, my documentary " The Blue Quest Baja California " won the Gold Trophy at the Deauville Green Awards. 🏆

#5 Cédric Le Gallo, Writer and director 🎬

After a versatile career in journalism, directing and TV editing, I turned to fiction in 2015 with the creation of the mini-series " Scènes de Culte" for Ciné+. 🎞️

🎥 In 2019, my experience as part of an LGBT+ water-polo team inspired the hit film "Les Crevettes Pailletées", which won an award at the Alpes d'Huez Film Festival. The sequel, "La Revanche des Crevettes Pailletées" (April 2022), won the Audience Award in Miami. 🏅

Currently, in collaboration with Soyouz Films, I'm preparing "Partir en beauté", a comedy-drama about assisted suicide. 🔜
