Creative Industries - Alumni

Bonnier Maeva Testimonial

Maeva Live Entertainment - General Secretary - BOB EL WEB (Bordeaux)

Maeva initially trained in finance, so the world of culture was not an obvious career path. But that wasn't going to stop her! Her passion for music drove her to persevere, and as soon as she joined the Specialized course "Management of Arts and Creative Industries", she wanted to find a music label. Sociable and ambitious by nature, she soon met many people working in arts and culture in Bordeaux, and it was this network that helped her to land a permanent contract in the sector.

Chloé

Chloé Wine & Tourism – Entrepreneur – C&W Experience

Chloé has lived in Bordeaux for several years, where she has developed a personalised wine-tourism business for international visitors, in addition to working as a communication and branding consultant, specialising in this sector. Thanks to her constant willingness to learn and her boundless energy, she has made a name for herself and embraced numerous activities. As an example, she trained as a sake educator (the only woman in France to do so).

Léo

Léo Culture & IT – Success Manager - Ulule

Léo joined the course to pursue his interest in cultures of all kinds and the manner in which these complement each other. He loves different places and multidisciplinary events, with the theme of his dissertation being music festivals in Vietnam. It was therefore quite natural that he should join Ulule to help make musical projects a reality, including providing support for artists and organising crowd funding strategies, etc. The skills required include open-mindedness, natural curiosity, a sense of initiative and perseverance.
