Singleton Institute is dedicated to my academic and consulting practice in corporate entrepreneurship. Typical key issues are: - How to foster an entrepreneurial spirit within large companies (behavioral level)? - How to build an enabling context for intrapreneurs (organizational design)? - How to structure a corporate venturing program (from opportunity recognition to the effective launching of internal ventures)?

I taught extensively Entrepreneurship, Corporate Entrepreneurship and Change Management in Msc and MBA programs ; directed ESCP-EAP specialized Master’s program in Innovation and Entrepreneurship ; designed and taught in several executive joint-programs with Duke University, Babson College and ESADE

I assisted start-ups in strategy formulation, and in business-plan design and implementation ; designed growth strategies for internal ventures within large companies, primarily in the field of information technology (telecommunications, media, computer industry)
