Arthur Darde

Arthur Darde is currently the Director of New Technology and Co-Founder at Otoqi. Previously, they worked as the Lead Process Engineer for CO2 capture at Air Liquide from January 2005 to December 2012. In this role, Arthur was responsible for developing a commercial offer, analyzing the market, and implementing the first references. Arthur then moved to Bouygues Energies et Services in April 2012, where they became the Responsable offres de performance énergétique et construction durable. In this role, Arthur developed an offer for a "Service de Lux" (>2M€) where Bouygue ES sold levels of illumination rather than bulbs and installation/maintenance work. The customer bought a service that cost less than the simple continuation of the status quo (fluorescent lighting)... there was no need to justify the return on investment because the investment was borne by the partner Bouygues Energies et Services!

The offer was rolled out on many platforms for which the end customer no longer had to support the investment: they bought a service rather than a technical service. Arthur remained in this role until June 2016 when they left to co-found Otoqi.

Arthur Darde has an engineering degree from CentraleSupélec and a Master's degree in Energy and Project Management from the same school.

Arthur Darde reports to Sébastien De Limon, CEO & Co-Founder. Arthur Darde works with Jordi Carbonell - Customer Success Manager, Matthieu Sauleek - Operations Manager, and Jonathan Curtarelli - Senior Executive Account Manager.
