With 16 years of experience in Dassault Systèmes, Remi has been committed throughout his career to his passion of deep interest in Geosciences, Architecture Engineering and Construction (AEC) sciences and technology. Working in close collaboration with industry, research institutions, and governments he focused on leading business transformation in Aerospace, Naval, Industrial Equipment and AEC industries in both mature and emerging markets with 7 years in France and 8 years in Asia. 

A graduate in 2006 of Master of Science in aerospace system engineering, ESTACA (Ecole Supérieure des Techniques Aéronautiques et de Construction Automobile) a five-year program in Aeronautical, Aerospace, Automobile and Railway Engineering and a BSc in 1999 of Aerospace and System Engineering , originally from Paris, Remi has developed his leadership and management skills with Multinational Corporation clients such as Bouygues Construction, CRDC, SMEDI and CHIDI. 

He currently leads the Architecture, Engineering and Construction industry. Native French, Remi is fluent in English, German and conversational in Mandarin. Its openness to the international market made him agile, with capabilities to adapt to different cultures and to think out of the box.

Driven by a vision for a construction industry that understands and acts upon its impact on the environment, I bring together a deep knowledge of geometry, fabrication, and the circular economy with expertise in digital design tools. 

From interactive early stage design tools to additive manufacturing in steel, the common thread through all my work has been honing my digital craft to capture relationships between disciplines in pursuit of sustainable design solutions.
