Chloe Lelan

Originally from Nice, France, I have developed a deep interest in traveling during my undergraduation in order to develop an international and multidisciplinary outlook on business relationships, especially within emerging markets. Namely, I've lived in Paris, France, Grand bay, Mauricius Island, Melbourne, Australia, Casablanca Morocco, and Sao Paulo, Brazil. I am currently a student at the Mestrado Profissional em Gestão Internacional (MPGI) of the Escola de Administração de Empresas de São Paulo (FGV),

During my university studies, I acquired technical knowledge in business development. I also had the opportunity, through numerous projects and internships, to acquire professional skills and a certain autonomy.

My first internship was a 4-month mission at Foredeck Consulting on Mauritius island. I was part of the consulting team for high-end hotels and restaurants and my role was to optimize customer experience and to prepare the implementation of a customized project management software solution.

I then occupied the role of Business Developer at BananaLab in Melbourne for 6 months as part of my second internship. I took part in the development of prospecting and growth strategies, was in charge of the research of suppliers, customers, and distributors, and identification of their needs but also of the negotiation of commercial proposals.

Lastly, I finished my bachelor's by working as a commercial corporate at La Maison Du Chocolat for 6 months in Paris. I was in charge of the commercial development of BtoB customer targets; Had to propose personal advisement and shopping experience, customization, and elaboration of orders for new customer and clients portfolios; and was taking care of custom projects for major accounts (product personalization for Chloé's VIP clients and fashion week).

 Currently part of the Mestrado Profissional em Gestão Internacional (MPGI) of the Fundação Getulio Vargas of São Paulo (FGV), I will join the CEMS Global Alliance in Management Education for my second year of Master's.
I had the chance during my bachelor's to study business in Africa and the Moroccan market in Casablanca, then to do a double degree between emlyon business school and the Fundação Getulio Vargas. I finished these first 4 years by writing a thesis on women entrepreneurs in Morocco.
