Nicolas Babin

For many years, I have had the great pleasure of collaborating with Nicolas on numerous projects. Nicolas is an outstanding serial entrepreneur, a visionary expert in new technologies, recognized today by his peers for his expertise in many fields such as AI, robotics, digital transformation, cloud, 5G, big data, gamification, health tech, and many others. He is constantly learning to stay on top of the latest innovations, demonstrating, and developing multiple talents every day: author, speaker, advisor, influencer, and entrepreneur to name a few. Having evolved in different functions, and industries at the global level, Nicolas has forged a solid double competence in tech & business. He is also gifted with a rare capacity for analysis, creativity, and a sense of observation that allows him to feed his strategic vision with accuracy and relevance. Finally, there is so much more to say about the leadership dimension. Nicolas is the incarnation of emotional intelligence. He is a respected and appreciated leader with a deep sense of the human being he treats with respect. He knows how to get the best out of his teams to meet the ambitious challenges imposed by any transformation and innovation. An entrepreneur to meet, an advisor, and influencer to work with without further delay.

In an industry which develops every day, the word visionary is being used far too often. The truth is that while most practitioners are fighting to keep up, Nicolas has proven his exquisite ability to see ahead of the curve. Time and again Nicolas has empowered us how to accurately plan and strategise as he communicates coming trends to ordinary people - all over the world and in any size of organization. With Nicolas on board, we keep up painlessly. He leads from the front and it’s a delight to work with someone who has his eye on the ball and his feet on the ground. Nicolas is a true visionary.

I invited Nicolas to speak at our gamification conference In Berlin last month. We had a truly international audience from over 35 countries attending. A tough audience too. Our attendees don't just want to hear a great talk but they expect it to be truly engaging and interactive as well. Nicolas' task was to inspire and inform our audience about the future of our industry, covering a broad array of technologies in a short space of time. He delivered perfectly. He gave a great talk, handled the crowd well and got them bustling in close to hear more. We received great feedback from our attendees about his session. I can highly recommend Nicolas as an inspiring speaker who will deliver what you need for your audience.

Nicolas was a guest on SaugaTalks sharing his unique experiences on DigitalTransformation drivers, technology & change management advice. Nicolas is a pleasure to work with. Exciting and energetic knowledgeable speaker and experienced technology leader! I welcome the opportunity to work with Nicolas in the future.
