A French-Belgian citizen, Max has gathered 15 years of experience in the transportation industry internationally. As an Oliver Wyman consultant he has led strategy and operations projects in the world of air, maritime and ground transportation. His best memories include his role in the $1B fleet renewal programme for the NYC subway ; optimising the workflow inside a helicopter maintenance facility ; and designing a modern-day “silk road” to carry goods on rails from China to Europe. All of which have satisfied Max’s appetite for making things lean and efficient.
Max has then experienced transportation “from within” as a senior manager at Eurostar — the high-speed train service connecting London with Paris, Brussels and Amsterdam. He looked after the operations where the challenge was to make the best use of resources (fleet, crew and stations) to support the train service. In 2021, Max co-founded RISE to address the specific needs of business aviation operators. Their core solution, OptiriseTM, helps operators optimise their fleet schedules, thereby generating significant savings in costs and CO2. In his spare time, Max enjoys the outdoors and he is the manager of a solar power plant.
