I am passionate about intellectual property – especially patents. My start up patented. Network deals with the Valuation, monetization and commercialization of patent.
As a founder, I have a zillion questions popping up in my mind each day and when I spoke to other founders, it seemed like we were all in the same boat. 
We have questions. Investors, Other experienced founders and mentors have the answers.
It is my hope to collect questions from founders and get answers from others who are farther along on the journey.

Gilles is based in London, originally from Paris, and spent more than 20 years in banking, as a Managing Director and a global trading manager at Citigroup.

In 2020, Gilles’ priorities changed, and he founded, a tech company whose award-winning mobile App helps those lonely and aging.

Having been a leader from early in his career, through thick and thin, Gilles has developed his own formula for successful leadership. He now advises and trains managers and leaders in the world.

An exemplary problem solver and a people person, he consistently helped people become good at their job, helped inexperienced individuals become autonomous senior producers, helped ambitious workers become managers, and helped managers run solid teams to become respected leaders.

His expertise spans the corporate world, along with entrepreneurship and startups, but also family and local communities.
