Early life and career

He began his career in 1989 for BNP Paribas as a programmer in San Francisco. He moved to California as a result.[3] In 1992, he left BNP Paribas in order to take the head of the French and German branches for Atwork Health Systems.[3] He then left Atwork in order to take the head of Administration for Cats Software US, thus moving to Palo Alto, in California.

In 2006, during the battery recall controversy that Sony faced (some notebook computers from brands like Toshiba, Dell, Lenovo or Apple were provided with built-in lithium batteries that could provoke fire due to overheating, causing property damage or minor burns, forcing Sony to initiate the biggest recall recall policy in the world at the time),[12][13] Nicolas Babin was heavily involved in the crisis management.[14]

Technological innovations (2008-2017)

Nicolas Babin left Sony in 2008 in order to join AT Internet, a French company specialized in web analytics, becoming the company Chief Operating Officer.[3] He occupied this post during the Google bug in 2009, or when Microsoft allowed other browsers on their machines[15]{{,}}.[16] In 2010, he became the Managing Director of the Groupe Concoursmania in France,[2] specialized in online competition and marketing gaming.[9]

He notably managed the IPO process of the Groupe Concoursmania,[4] as well as its development in Europe.[17]

He then joined Neopost in 2013, a French company specialized in franking machines or postage meters as the marketing Director and as the head of the group of Digital Solutions.[18] He then left Neopost in 2017.[3]
