After an early career in France and Spain as an industrial engineer working mainly in the automotive industry, Axel came to the US to get his MBA from MIT. 
He then started his finance journey, serving as the head of strategy and transformation for two banks. 
Where he led in areas such as strategic and commercial planning, as well as product development and marketing.
