Hello!

I'm Martin, a French entrepreneur based in Singapore. My day job is to help large companies to be more digital and think like startups. This is why I'm taking my clients to visit innovative cities across Asia. When I'm not working, I love to write, explore alternative forms of investment, run and build myself a body to live until at least 100, I'm a big gamer, and I challenge myself by trying to play the hardest scores on flute. Check my LinkedIn and Twitter too!
