Bertrand Leroux
Interviewed on July 30, 2023 in Cio Leader
Who are you, and what do you do?
I’m an accomplished Fortune 500 technology and CIO leader with over 30 years of experience leading successful large-scale transformation initiatives, including technology innovation and digital transformations. My expertise extends to world-class brands such as Activision Blizzard, Vivendi, and Disney, in the media/entertainment, video games, and consumer products business in Europe & the US. Throughout my career, I have demonstrated a track record in building strong business partnerships, leading high-performing teams, operationalizing strategies in line with the business, and executing M&A transactions across the deal lifecycle. As a hands-on leader, I instill confidence, drive financial results and customer value, and serve as a trusted advisor to executive leaders and boards of directors. After spending the last 35 years in big corporations in Europe and the US, I decided to step back. Currently, I am engaged in consulting business and advising startups. I’m a board member of the French Tech in Miami, promoting the emergence of successful start-ups in France. Additionally, I hold the position of a foreign trade advisor for France (CCEF). Beyond my professional endeavors, I have a passion for exploring the world through travel, honing my culinary skills through cooking, enjoying the great outdoors with hiking and motorbiking, and indulging in boating and playing tennis/paddle tennis.
