Nos Alumni ont du talent - Gaël Meunier 120 Grand Paris-sud

1. What did you do before Icam?

A science-oriented Lycée at the Lazaristes in Lyon

2. How did you hear about Icam? Why did you choose this school?

Martin, my older brother, was at ICAM before me. He had already gone to India as a preparatory student, and told me about the friendly, family atmosphere.

I chose this school because I felt it was easy to take on responsibilities outside the classroom (association), and that at ICAM GPS the relationship with teachers and management was straightforward.

3. What course of study have you completed? Why? (integrated, apprenticeship, continuing education)

I started out as an integrated student, and I'd already wanted to go to India before I'd even set foot in ICAM. Experimentation was also something that attracted me. I really appreciated the atmosphere in our class, and the relationship with our teachers and management.

In the end, I decided to go on a sandwich course to gain financial independence. It's a choice I don't regret, despite some difficulties with my company.

I was at Engie Inéo, building electricity, a field I like, but I had no follow-up and few assignments.

What career opportunities did you find after your studies at Icam?

I had prepared a sabbatical year with 3 friends. We left for a year to take on various challenges in Europe.

4. What do you currently do? What led you to your current position in your current company? (Climbing the ladder, liking the sector, the activity itself, choice of association, etc.).

Today, I'm a self-employed entrepreneur, doing sports adventures, conferences and documentaries.

In the long term, I hope to do between 2 and 4 months of adventures a year. Between 2 and 4 conferences a month, and I'd like to set up a business in parallel.

5. Are you involved in a professional association or branch? What is your relationship with the Icam Alumni Association or Icam today?

Today, I'm still in contact with the ICAM management, I give lectures on the Grand Paris Sud site, and I'm developing a program for future students who are going on Experiment.
