After
a short stay in the marketing department

help of 4 other University classmates. As
the market trends were moody, he decided
to focus the company's strategy on emerging
markets such as Micro-Unix, Client-Server
and the Internet, where even a small company
could find its place. From 1995, he decided
to make the employees participate in the
corporate capital; now worker participation
has reached a level of 60% of the total
assets.
Since
1997 he has been trying to develop the company's
business world-wide. In 2000, exports accounted
for 25 % of the company's turnover. In 1999,
we went to Romania for for a huge development
project ("The Port"). He recruited the necessary
staff, increased the corporate capital and
implemented both an operation unit and a
research unit in Artificial Intelligence
in Eastern Europe and set up Pentalog's
European low cost strategy.
In
2006 he created a joint venture together
with Ausy, one of the biggest French R&D
outsourcing services companies: Pentalog
Technology, offering low cost high quality
R&D services to world-wide industry majors.
Frederic
is also a Marketing and Project Management
