Bio
Romain TREBUIL
Since the launch of my DNVB Circle Sportswear Nicolas has been a very helpful and human partner. As a Brand and a Direct To Consumer expert, he has worked with us on matters of strategy and operations. His approach to branding is particularly relevant for young digital brands and his knowledge of omni-channel distribution was really interesting to deep dive together.

J’ai eu le plaisir de travailler pendant près de deux ans avec Nicolas sur un projet de développement de centre commercial en Ile-de-France. Nicolas a énormément apporté à l’équipe, d’abord par sa rigueur analytique acquise lors de ses expériences passées dans les équipes d’investissement, mais aussi par sa créativité, sa capacité à faire le lien entre ses analyses et sa capacité à intégrer des enjeux techniques d’un métier qu’il méconnaissait à l’époque (immobilier et construction) dans une réelle vision 360°. Le tout sans oublier un excellent état d’esprit entrepreneurial, une super énergie et beaucoup de bonne humeur !
