Inès LeonarduzziCEO of Digital For the Planet

Based in Paris and Cape Town, Inès Leonarduzzi is a digital entrepreneur since 2008 and passionate about clean technologies.

Her current job is to develop ways to gather humans and environment stakes through social-focused and sustainable tech, especially low-carbone machine learning and blockchain.

Ex-Strategist in Digital Corporate communication, Public Affairs and Digital transformation, she worked both in companies and consulting firms in 11 different countries (US, France, UK, Italy, Netherlands, Germany, HK, China, Singapore, Morocco, Belgium) and led 5-25 people teams.

In 2014, she created a clandestine brunch in my apartment, BrunchbyInes that became a key hidden place in Paris for people all over the world.

She teaches in universities and business schools in France and England, in Strategic Digital Communication, Management, Global Sustainability and Circularity Management and regularly gives lectures in institutions, companies and professional fairs (Unesco, BNP Paribas, Total, Harvard, AXA, Facebook, Carrefour, Vivatech, Air France, Chanel...).

In 2017, after deep researches, she founded Digital For The Planet, the first global Earth Project dedicated to digital ecology, that works concretely on worldwide actions.

Since 2017, she has been nominated as Research Director on Global Sustainability and Transition of Feminism at Institut des Transitions in Paris, a think tank co-founded by Jean Tillinac and Alain Caillé.

Through all these years, she has also done many things that extraordinarily failed.

To end, her first passion is literature: she read as much as she can and writes shorts stories and poetry, on her free time.
