Chief Executive Officer and co-founder
Francois focuses on the next generation of the Tadaweb technology and ensures the company is resourced to continue to grow as a scale up. He dedicated his hacker mindset for several years to building the backbone of what is now the Tadaweb platform… Something futuristic, like from the movie Minority Report, a system to extract and transform information on the internet faster and more efficiently. François is a tinkerer at heart, spending time with his family at second-hand markets finding old radios, gaming consoles (bring on Tetris or Pong) and other oddities that they can repair and rebuild together. He is fascinated by antique science books, comparing and contrasting where things were, where we are today and the possibilities of tomorrow.
