Expertise

Journaliste économique pour mind Retail depuis début 2024, j’analyse les dynamiques de transformation digitale dans le commerce. Mon travail mêle suivi de l’actualité sectorielle, enquêtes approfondies et décryptage des innovations technologiques nourris par des échanges avec des experts du terrain à travers des interviews de dirigeants et l’animation de tables rondes.
Forte d’une première expérience en analyse d’insights stratégiques au sein du HUB Institute, je m’attache à produire une information indépendante et rigoureuse pour les décideurs du retail. Je couvre un large spectre de sujets liés à la digitalisation et à l’omnicanalité dans le retail et la retail tech : expérience client, supply chain, paiement, cybersécurité, intelligence artificielle.
