Business Development and Project Management
I worked for SFR for 3 years at Mappy SA as a Key Account Manager. I was in charge of Business Development and Project Management.
SFR was a privilegied partner of Mappy and I was responsible of all the projects that SFR and Mappy had in common, such as the development and integration of various Location-based Services for Web and Mobiles.
In September 2007, SFR launched in Partnership with Mappy a new product named “SFR Navigation by Mappy”. That was a true beginning of a cool story with many new exclusive services and features for Mobiles: integrated GPS, Address and Route search, Navigation solutions (that only PND was able to do before) and integration of the PagesJaunes power (with many professionnals and individuals referenced).
