Stan is an incredible leader and visionary in the tech industry. Moreover, he is extremely skilled at creating community and culture within a company, and this results in passionate teams who get things done.

Guillaume Marcilhac

Stan is a great guy to work with; always committed, enthusiastic and challenging. He is people oriented and caring as a person and dedicated to clients value, learning curve and success as a professional; which is instrumental when driving market growth. Besides, Stan has a strong ability to feel, read, understand market trends and address related clients needs. Stan has developed a deep understanding of the US market and its requirements to succeed and could be a great asset for any companies having ambitions in the US.

Dan Husmer

Stan is an intelligent, motivating, and caring leader and overall great guy! I had the pleasure of reporting to Stan for 2.5 years at Locala when he was CEO and I was VP, Client Services for the Americas region. He has a strong understanding of the Americas market, especially the U.S. He was able to successfully bridge the gap between the Paris headquarters and our region, representing our interests and needs, obtaining essential support and resources that allowed us to grow and thrive. An example of this is that he created a program of benefits and incentives that made us a more competitive, challenging, goals-oriented company, but also supportive, fun, and rewarding as well. His efforts allowed us to hire and retain talent, do our best work, and stay optimistic, even in times of incredible uncertainty like during the initial COVID lockdowns of 2020. His personality is one of optimism, positivity, and he’s always learning and teaching. I’ll miss his positive vibes (and of course his dancing!) at our meetings and events the most. I highly recommend Stan for any role, especially for any European based companies that are looking to grow in the Americas.
