A senior academic leader specializing in sustainable finance, energy economics, and climate transition, I design and lead high-impact research and doctoral ecosystems aligned with international accreditation and ranking standards.

I currently serve as Director Project Manager at WinVeston Capital (Saudi Arabia), where I contribute to the development of strategic initiatives at the intersection of finance, sustainability, investment, and international institutional partnerships. This role further strengthens my engagement in bridging academic expertise with the needs of global financial markets and economic transformation agendas.

Previously, I served as Professor of Finance and Head of Department at Paris School of Business, where I secured competitive European funding, strengthened international research collaborations, and led major initiatives in research governance and doctoral education.

I hold degrees from Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne University and Paris Nanterre University. I obtained my PhD in Finance from Paris Ouest Nanterre La Défense University and hold an Habilitation à Diriger des Recherches (HDR) from University of Paris VIII Vincennes Saint-Denis. My academic career also includes appointments at University of Ottawaand University of Luxembourg.

I initiated and developed the International Symposium on Environment and Energy Finance Issues (ISEFI), which has become a well-established international academic event with eight successful editions to date. Building on this momentum, I co-founded the International Conference on Sustainability, Environment, and Social Transition in Economics and Finance (SESTEF) together with the Centre for Research on Energy and Climate Change (CRECC). The conference was conceived as a natural extension of the ISEFI initiative and is grounded in the same scientific vision and collaborative spirit.

At Paris School of Business (Founder and Director of CRECC, 2019–2026; Head of Department, 2019–2023), I led a strategic transformation toward a research-driven model by structuring research governance, enhancing publication performance, professionalizing doctoral supervision, and aligning faculty management with AACSB, EFMD, and EQUIS standards. I also strengthened international collaborations and positioned the department around high-impact themes such as sustainable finance, energy transition, and climate economics.

I also operate at the interface of academia, innovation, and policy as Director at OneHealthAI. Earlier positions at UNESCO and Caisse des Dépôts et Consignations contributed to shaping my expertise in international policy frameworks, public finance, and institutional development.

With more than 100 scientific publications and senior editorial responsibilities in leading international journals, I combine academic excellence with strategic leadership. My objective is to drive institutional transformation, enhance global visibility, and build competitive, research-intensive academic environments that create lasting impact across academia, industry, and policymaking.
