About Benoit

I am results-driven with a high-performance mindset shaped by my own podiums in elite sport, corporate leadership, and entrepreneurship

🏆 Podiums in Elite sports: Recognised as a High-Level Athlete by the French Ministry of Sports, I competed internationally, winning the Admiral’s Cup - World Champion, and placing 2nd in the Little America’s Cup with my own team. I have also won the Tour de France à la Voile and a European Championship.

💼 Corporate leadership: Over 23 years with world-leading companies (SUN Microsystems, IBM, AT&T, Serono, Merck-Serono), I led international teams, delivered complex transformation projects involving thousands of users, and optimised multi-million-euro budgets – earning an IBM Award for Telecom process & cost optimisation.

🚀 Entrepreneurial journey
Since 2013, I have built and led these three ventures:
- AXON Racing, my first entrepreneurial chapter, 2nd in a World Championship + Red Bull Coach (Flying catamaran, 4 events)
- AXON Translate, Exclusive Translattion Technology Provider of the IOC for Lausanne 2020, the Youth Winter Olympics Games.
- AIKEYOS - You AI, with your KEY, On your Site. Do not export any longer your data to opaque clouds, but import the intelligence on board your company.

Their common threads: teamwork, technology, performance, innovation, and trust - whether on the water, in the mountains or in the boardroom!

Experience

  • AIKYOS
    Founder & CEO
    June 2025 - Today (1 year)
    Geneva, Switzerland
    I founded AIKYOS to solve one paradox: every enterprise wants AI, but few can afford to lose control of their data.
    Most GenAI solutions today run in opaque clouds, on servers you don't own, under laws that don't protect you.
    AIKYOS breaks that trade-off: sovereign, on-premises GenAI that is powerful, auditable, and fully under your control.
    No black box. No data egress. No compliance compromise.
    Your AI and you Data, with your KEY, rules, On your Site
