I've had the pleasure to work with Philippe for several years, and boy : was it a joy! One of the few with a great personality as manager, together with a fierce drive to conquer the market with his/our products. We sure felt his strategic leadership throughout the whole product life cycle, together with his enthusiastic approach to our teams. Nothing but positive words for this wise guy ;)
