About Christophe Belloncle
I am an international entrepreneur and strategic advisor with hands-on experience in both corporate leadership roles and entrepreneurial ventures, building, scaling and restructuring scalable business models across Europe, the United States, Mexico and LATAM.
With an Industrial Engineering background and nearly three decades operating at the intersection of strategy, operations and execution, I bring a structured, analytical and pragmatic approach to business growth and transformation.
I also bring deep hands-on experience in brand development, product strategy and international sourcing, including outsourced manufacturing across Asia, North America and Europe, operating under strict quality, compliance and cost-efficiency standards.
My work is often supported by ERP-driven execution, ensuring scalability, traceability and operational discipline across markets.
Over the past years, I have supported founders, investors and leadership teams facing growth, complexity or transition, bridging strategy with disciplined execution and measurable outcomes.
My background combines:
- Founder and CEO experience
- Scale-up and early-stage advisory
- International expansion and cross-border operations
- Licensing, franchising and partnership-driven growth models
- Fundraising strategy and investor readiness
I don’t operate as a traditional consultant. I work as a pragmatic advisor and operator, focused on decisions that move the business forward — fast, structured and measurable.
Trilingual: English · Spanish · French.
