Guillaume is an expert in water utilities and natural resources management. His focus is on SDGs 6, 7, 9 and 11. He has more than 20 years of experience working at the crossroads of technology and water management. After having spent 10 years in water operations, he became a technology expert in the fields of data analytics, digital innovation and emerging tech for the water sector. He comes with robust experience with utilities giants (Suez, Veolia, Thames Water), global consultancies (PWC, IBM, Accenture) and international institutions (the World Bank, UNEP, AFD).
He is also an expert to the Solar Impulse Foundation in the context of the “Efficient Solutions” Label, an initiative designed to shed light on existing cleantech solutions that are both clean and profitable and have a positive impact on quality of life.
Guillaume is passionate about finding new ways of addressing the water and sanitation challenges and help speeding-up actions towards the achievement of SDG6, collaborating with a variety of stakeholders.
He strongly believes that innovation is not a slogan, but it is a process with substance. And there are plenty of ideas, opportunities, entrepreneurs and knowledge out there to revolutionize the water sector and bring life and health to all.
