IIC France Chapter meeting: Key Pillars of the Digital Networks Act

Aude is a Director at Analysys Mason, and an economist with nearly 20 years’ experience at the crossroads of technology, telecoms and regulation. She works for industry stakeholders on informing their economic and regulatory decisions and improving their policies and performance. Her differentiating strength is her ability to connect the dots between market dynamics, regulatory shifts, technological disruption and societal expectations. She helps to translate complex and nuanced areas of policy and change into clear strategic implications for decision makers. She has led and managed international projects for BEREC, the ITU, the World Bank, GSMA and national regulators, and has advised global tech companies and telecoms operators. 

She currently serves on the board of directors of the think tank Renaissance Numérique and chairs the French chapter of the International Institute of Communications (IIC). Aude holds a PhD in Economics (Telecom ParisTech), an MPhil in International Economic Relations (Sciences Po Paris) and an MSc in Business Administration (SKEMA Business School, France).

Mentoring matters to her: she actively supports younger women in tech and policy, and she is drawn to anything that makes leadership more open and futureproof.
