I have been participating, since September 2009 to a major international project directly related to the Shanghai 2010 World Expo as the project manager and community manager of the online portal for companies www.shanghai2010.fr/english which gives you the opportunity to better understand all the French actions at the Expo.
The portal also has a group on Viadeo : http://www.viadeo.com/hu03/002107b38unvoz7q/shanghai-2010-french-connection
and Facebook : http://www.facebook.com/pages/Shanghai-2010-French-Connection/211449396029

An atypical 15 years professional journey whose 10 related to international contexts including 5 years in China.

Speaking French, English, Castillan and Mandarin, I started my career in sports field (Coach, team captain, and twice member of the French Pro Tour organisation team) to evoluate afterward as a trainer and pedagogical manager of an intercultural team before running my own business in import-export with a Chinese associate (set up in Honk-Kong with an operationnal base in Shanghai). I was in charge of front-office as a BtoB commercial manager despite regurlarly going back and forth between France and China for the back-office as well.

This richful and wide experience background within management, human ressources, human support and training within multicultural environments have obviously led me to become an interculturalist and I'm now proposing my services into international and intercultural projects as a consultant-trainer.

Within the framework of the online and international network Internations (http://www.internations.org/users/signup/85272_Jean-Noel_Lorriaux) whose I'm Lyon co-Ambassador, I'm a network events leader and organize a monthly intercultural gathering in Lyon.
Feel free to contact me if you want to join this network.

I'm an OnlyLyon Ambassador as well (http://www.onlylyon.org/home-1-2.html) which aims to promote the city of Lyon and make it a recognized European economic force, by capitalizing on its leadership in numerous fields as well as its historic assets.

At last, I'm a representative for the Rhône-Alpes region of the CICP
(Chambre Internationale pour le Conseil et la Promotion), http://www.cicp.biz/ an international institution that gathers managers, CEO, investors, experts, well-known scholars and politics figures as well as business networks.

Because life is first of all chance encounters and shared experiences, I enjoy discovering new things and personalities as well as learning from/to, so feel free to contact me !

My aims on ZoomInfo :
- develop my socio-professionnal network and make richful human encounters
- mutualize skills, information, knowledge, etc.
- and of course find clients ! :-)
