Bio
Kael Lazla
I had the chance to work with Sylvain on multiple Mobile projects. Sylvain is a multi-talented freemium expert. He knows this ecosystem very well, from design to the live operation. I enjoyed all my discussions with him, and always learned something out of our debates. He's a fantastic professional to work with! Sylvain is a Partner I highly recommend if you want to succeed in the Freemium space!

I had the pleasure of working with Sylvain during our time at Ludia for the Jurassic World project, a massive undertaking of a game that had to be released in conjunction with the film in summer 2015. He immediately struck me as someone who was smart and agile, not just in terms of work but also in his ability to understand people and give them direction when it was needed. Production on any major gaming project is never without its challenges and setbacks - which was true of JW - but it takes someone with a steady hand at the wheel to ensure their team focuses on the right problems and concentrates their energy on solutions. Sylvain is that type of person. I am grateful for his career advice and his insights into what it means to be in charge of 50+ people, a significant budget entrusted to you, and how to eat pressure for breakfast before the first morning meeting. Supporter, mentor, knowledgeable guy. In short, Sylvain is your producer if you want to your project through from start to finish. It was a lot of fun working with you, Sylvain!
