I worked in Asia for 12 years (Shanghai, Hong Kong and Singapore) within the digital and technology space. I'm now the Europe Regional Managing Director at Palo IT.

I am passionate about how to use technology as a force for good.

With 20 years of experience in IT across different sectors and industries, Benoit had managed teams focusing on project management and production and now is responsible for IT projects accross departments. Benoit is a strong sustainability advocate: in 2017, he was one of the founders and, later on, leader of Credit Agricole CIB's first green team in Singapore. In 2024, Benoit was an ECODESIGN Coach within Credit Agricole Assurances (CAA) where he contribute to create and deploy a framework for all IT projects to add a sustainability dimension to reduce their environmental footprint. This will help managers and management to understand both financial and carbon impacts and take decisions with wide insights.

I was born in Vietnam and grew up in France in Paris’ low income suburbs. My parents used to bring us to the park to have some outdoor activities and that’s where my father taught my siblings and I to observe, love and respect nature. He gave us perspective on our place in a much bigger ecosystem. 

At that time, we didn’t describe our family as “sustainable”. It was very pragmatic, we didn’t waste anything, we mended everything, saved and reused, because we just couldn’t afford not to :)

In 2018 in Singapore, after what felt like a long, unfulfilling professional tunnel on autopilot, I was forced to make a pause and took the opportunity to consider what I really wanted to do with my life (I know this resonates with many!)

Then I really realised how passionate I was about sustainability and for the first time, I considered making it my job. Nothing is easy when you don’t hold the right degrees or the right amount of money, so I co-created The Matcha Initiative to jump into action instead of procrastinating. That’s how you start an amazing experience with amazing people :)

Cherry on the cake: TMI helped me land my current job at Handprint, where we help businesses embrace the next step - Regeneration.

I am the Co-Founder of Sustainable Gaia, a Singapore based sustainability consultancy, focusing on sustainability reporting using GRI, TCFD, UNSDGs, ISO 14064 and other frameworks.

I have a background in Finance (MBA from IIM Calcutta), Financial Economics (M.Sc from University of London) and ESG (through various certifications and sustainability experience). I have done curriculum development and training for a wide range of companies, and agencies like National Environmental Agency and Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy around Systems Thinking and Social Entrepreneurship respectively.

Organizational development, change, transformation, and innovation using AI are my areas of interest.

With a foundation in software engineering, I've journeyed through agile coaching to conscious leadership and systems thinking. Now, I guide organizations through complex transformations — agile, sustainability, and AI — by fostering human-centric approaches and systemic understanding. I'm passionate about evolving leadership to navigate our increasingly technological and interconnected world responsibly.

I am absolutely convinced that the solutions to our current global predicaments do not primarily lie in "doing" more or focusing solely on actions. Instead, I believe the answers are found in our "beingness" — our mindsets and underlying belief systems. Addressing our challenges effectively requires a fundamental shift in consciousness. Once that internal shift occurs, the right actions will naturally follow. Simply starting with "doing" or concentrating too much on technical solutions, without this deeper shift, won't lead us to the desired outcomes.
