About Olivier:

Senior Executive in the energy business for more than 30 years, Olivier is currently the General Manager, Technology and Innovation in Shell Brasil.

Since 1990, Olivier has acquired a wide experience in the Oil & Gas and Energy business with Shell International, when he managed key assets worldwide, in UK, Oman, Malaysia and Brazil. More recently, he has been leading the Energy Transition challenges from the R&D and Innovation fronts. A quote he particularly likes, from Steve Jobs: “It doesn't make sense to hire smart people and then tell them what to do. We hire smart people so they can tell us what to do.”.
