Senior academic leader 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 hold a dual position that bridges academic research and financial strategy. Since February 2026, I have been serving as Project Manager at WinVeston Capital (Saudi Arabia) , where I contribute to the development of strategic initiatives at the intersection of sustainable investment, financial markets, and international institutional partnerships. Concurrently, since March 2026, I have been Senior Affiliate Researcher at IPAG Business School (France) , pursuing my research agenda in sustainable finance, energy economics, and climate transition.
Prior to these roles, I was Professor of Finance and Head of Department at Paris School of Business, where I secured competitive European funding—notably through the Horizon 2020 MEDRESET project—and contributed to strengthening international research networks.
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 my Habilitation à Diriger des Recherches (HDR) from University of Paris VIII Vincennes Saint-Denis. My academic trajectory also includes appointments at the University of Ottawa and the University of Luxembourg.
At IPAG Business School, I founded and developed the International Symposium on Environment and Energy Finance Issues (ISEFI) , which has grown into a well-established academic event now in its eighth edition. Building on this momentum, I co-founded—together with the CRECC research center—the International Conference on Sustainability, Environment, and Social Transition in Economics and Finance (SESTEF) . Conceived as a natural extension of ISEFI, the conference shares the same scientific vision and collaborative spirit. It has now reached its fifth edition, which will be hosted by Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne University, with IPAG Business School as an institutional partner.
At Paris School of Business, where I served as Founder and Director of CRECC (2019–2026) and Head of Department (2019–2023), I led a strategic transformation toward a research-driven model. My work focused on structuring research governance, improving publication performance, professionalizing doctoral supervision, and aligning faculty management with AACSB, EFMD, and EQUIS standards. I also expanded international partnerships and repositioned the department around high-impact themes including sustainable finance and energy transition.
Beyond these activities, I also serve as Director at OneHealthAI , operating at the interface of academia, innovation, and policy. Earlier roles at UNESCO and Caisse des Dépôts et Consignationshave shaped my expertise in international policy frameworks and financial systems.
With over 100 scientific publications and senior editorial responsibilities in leading international journals, I combine academic excellence with strategic leadership. My core ambition is to drive institutional transformation, enhance global visibility, and build competitive, research-intensive academic environments that generate lasting impact across academia, industry, and policymaking.
