"My business and technology projects team makes the link between business services and innovative trading technologies:
1. we capture market and customer needs and try to merge these with the design concepts of our innovative trading technologies.
2. we ensure that innovations and technology drivers get successfully integrated in our business services and processes."

My main objective in leading my teams is to create a clear image of the future services to customers and then align all talents and technology to reach the best possible result. We generally try to find practical elements from quality management, methodology, psychology and innovation to obtain a holistic approach and a successful re-engineering of services, processes and technology.

Technology and innovation is at the heart of what we do. We have recently announced the launch of our new state-of-the-art European Liquidity Data Center facility which will house all of NYSE Euronext's European markets and also includes a next generation co-location service for trading firms. This data centre will leverage the latest advancements in design and efficiency to create one of the most resilient, high-capacity and low-latency facilities in the world.
