Léo is a young professional who believes that the energy transition will succeed only if it is just. The Yellow Vest crisis in France forged this belief and sparked in him a never-ending interest in energy-related issues. Seeking to get a holistic vision of the energy issues, he pursued two master's degrees: one from Sciences Po Toulouse in European Affairs and the second from Université Paris Cité in Energy&Society, providing him with a transversal academic background suited to tackle the complexity of the energy transition.

After a first experience in press relations, he worked for a year in an apprenticeship at the French Wind Energy Association, advocating for the offshore wind industry. Léo is now thrilled to broaden his reach and support the scale-up of solar energy in the world through GSC's actions.
