Alain was a great influence on my thought development in Web Marketing. An amazing visionary who communicates his enthusiasm very convincingly, he helped my take a major leap in my understanding of the Web at the time. I would still be way behind where I am now if it weren't for the year I worked with him and the fantastic FokusGroup team.

Alain est un génie créatif qui a rapidement saisi la complexité technologique de notre entreprise et l'a simplifiée brillamment pour créer nos decks de recherche de financement et certains de nos messages marketing les plus percutants. Comprendre et traduire des concepts complexes en visuels simples est un talent rare ! De plus, Alain excelle dans sa compréhension globale des écosystèmes et des enjeux commerciaux. Sa pensée est sans limites, et il vous pousse à explorer les possibilités. Je suis toujours impressionnée par ses créations d'entreprise qui allient créativité produit, communication et une approche innovante de la mise sur le marché, avec un souci du détail remarquable.

Alain is a true visionary - if he says there will be a business application or market for a new technology, there will be one. It was a pleasure and challenge to work for him - the pleasure because the person he is and the challenge in trying keep up with the constant barrage of ideas!

Alain is one of the few people that had a tremendous impact my personal and professional life. I always cite Alain as my greatest business mentor and as a man who was born to lead. I can say that his leadership inspired me to excel, and he was constantly pushing me to extend well beyond what I perceived as my limitations. I really do not know where my career path would have led were it not for Alain.

Jonathan Markoff
Partner at Mach Velocity
I have worked with Alain as a client and supplier and have had a strategic alliance with him and his companies (Komunik and FokusGroup). Alain is a natural born leader who has proved to be creative, loyal, and thinking out of the box in many ways. He has been able to hire the right people who share his vision and can deliver. I strongly recommend him as a creative, problem solving and realistic individual.

From a professional point of view, most people are good at doing one or two things. This however is not the case with Alain. Clearly, he understands the finer points of market positioning, financing small to large companies, the role technology plays
