Benoît Charles-Lavauzelle, co-founder and CEO of Theodo Group, shares how he and Fabrice Bernhard transformed a Paris-based startup into a leading technology consultancy: over 700 people across the UK, France, Morocco and South Africa, €90M in revenue, and clients like BNP Paribas, Contentsquare, Dior, ManoMano, Safran and Qonto. He looks back on Theodo's business model, the shift from fixed-price to agile and then to Lean, and his pioneering vision for applying Lean thinking to the tech industry, which is at the heart of his book The Lean Tech Manifesto.
