[email protected] Félix Beaulieu linkedin.com/in/felixbeaulieu @FelixBeaulieu Born Parisian, aspiring multicultural and international citizen, I have been working in the social innovation sector since 2009, in front line organisations, consultancies and investments funds. I like to marry business mind-set and tangible social outcomes. I thrive in entrepreneurial environments where I can take ownership of a project, coordinate people and zoom into details as well as zoom out to the big strategic picture. I am interested in hearing more about any truly ambitious and genuinely generous project or person.
