About Benedicte Beaugeois<\/h3>\n

I am B\u00e9n\u00e9dicte Beaugeois, the Founder and Director of the Festival du Film Merveilleux de Paris, an international film festival celebrating the enchanting worlds of magic and fantasy. Based in London, I also serve as a Board Member and Director of Technology at the American Women\u2019s Club of London, where I oversee technological strategies.<\/p>\n

Currently, I am at the helm of Pymoon, an emerging venture dedicated to developing innovative STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts, mathematics) educational products. The first major initiative, a series of children’s books, is poised for release in the spring\/summer of 2024. This project has been selected for the Aspire Track \u2013 Social Tides, a social entrepreneurship acceleration program supported by Google.org and Inco Ventures.<\/p>\n

My professional journey began with an internship at the Cannes Film Festival, the world’s most renowned film festival. This experience gave me a unique insight into the film industry and event management, setting the stage for my future career.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n

Following my introduction to the entertainment world, my professional career advanced in the French public sector. I undertook specialized roles with URSSAF, the Journal Officiel, and the French Tax Office. In these positions, I honed my skills in administrative and financial management, which proved essential as I transitioned across sectors.<\/p>\n

In the creative sector, I gained extensive experience with various film production companies before taking on the role of Tracking Manager at Peermusic, the world\u2019s largest independent music publisher. I strategically analyzed data to verify and optimize royalty distributions, thereby enhancing artists’ income and significantly impacting the company’s financial performance.<\/p>\n

From 2014 to 2017, I represented Dyslexia International at UNESCO, advocating for international educational reforms and influencing policies to better accommodate educational needs.<\/p>\n

Partnering with Google for Nonprofits on my film festival highlighted the transformative potential of technology, inspiring further exploration into the synergy between creativity, Storytelling and technology. Through my involvement in initiatives like The Women Leadership Paris Program and Positive Planet France, and as a mentor with Social Builder, I have empowered entrepreneurs to leverage digital tools to enhance their businesses and contribute to a sustainable future.<\/p>\n

Additionally, I cofounded programs such as Movies around the World, Cannes Digital, and the Kaleidoscope Merveilleux, orchestrating various digital and innovative events including VR experiences, educational workshops, mentoring programs, and startup pitches.<\/p>\n

Educationally, I studied music and dance at CHAM \/ CHAD and earned\u00a0 executive certificates and degrees from ESSEC Executive Business School, the Ecole Sup\u00e9rieure d\u2019Enseignement Cin\u00e9matographique \u2013 Groupe EDH and Ecolearn X De Vinci Executive Education.<\/p>\n

In essence, I am a passionate entrepreneur and technology enthusiast, committed to fostering an innovative and sustainable economy that enhances access to quality education and lifelong learning opportunities.<\/p>\n
