majoring in International Business. During his studies he also followed different courses in different
European universities in the UK, the Netherlands and Spain.
All those years working and living in different countries have helped him grasp and understand
business codes and working ethics are different everywhere, he considers that to be
the bottom line to any international successful growth for a company.
In 2006 he moved to France and started Export-net, his goal was to help European SMEs that wanted
to go international but had nor the time nor the resources to do so. Etienne has also realised
the internet has become a tool no company can avoid if it wants to have any international visibility,
yet he knows human contact remains prominent to any business relationship especially in the
international field.
While starting Export-net, Etienne has teamed-up with the best partners in the marketplace:
From Internet web designer and Multilingual SEO (Search Engine Optimisation) specialists,
to international logistics, payment and insurance professionals. Over the years, he has also built
a network of international business contacts that are there to help European SMEs .
