About Jerome

Après une école d'ingénieur (Centrale Lille), j'ai développé mes compétences business au sein du groupe General Electric Healthcare. J'y ai occupé des roles de développement de business, à l'interface du produit et du client.
J'ai ensuite pris la direction d'une startup spécialisée dans le reporting médical, ou j'ai pu faire grandir une équipe de 3 à 15 personnes ; lever ~6m€ (fonds privés et publics) ; amorcer le business (market creation - ARR 500K€) et initier le virage generative AI.
Je me spécialise maintenant dans la création de valeur et l'intégration de l'IA générative dans les entreprise, avec un focus sur les technologies de RAG et architecture d'IA expertes. J'ai notamment développé et déployer une solution de RAG souverain pour la sécurité civile, actuellement en production.

Je dispose donc de compétences autant business que tech ; ce qui me permet de réduire au maximum les angles morts et d'avoir une vitesse d'exécution élevée.

    AI - From roadmap to implementation
    March 2025 - Today (1 year and 3 months)
    Lyon, France
    My role focuses on bridging strategy, business value and AI implementation.

    Supporting organizations in designing and structuring AI initiatives that deliver measurable business value, particularly in regulated and knowledge-intensive environments (healthcare, life sciences, data-driven industries).

    My role focuses on bridging strategy, business value and AI implementation.

    At a strategic level:
    - identify and prioritize high-value AI use cases & quantify expected value and ROI (low-hanging vs high-impact initiatives)
    - position AI initiatives within complex value chains
    - assess business models and partnership strategies

    At an operational level:
    - structure and test value propositions
    - support early execution and adoption of AI initiatives
    - align business, technical and data teams

    At a tech level :
    - Implement state-of-the-art RAG techniques to overcome contexte size limitation
    - AI architecture to leverage agentic vs workflow framework
    - Built sovereign and secure architecture — addressing data confidentiality challenges


    While many projects I lead in the past were in healthcare and life sciences, the approach is sector-agnostic and applies to any organization facing complex data, documentation and decision-making challenges.
