Axel Dumont

Managing Partner, Mediaedge:cia New York

New-YorkNew York - United States

Transferred from Paris to New-York in January 2009 primarily to lead the Monster account globally, I consider myself a multimedia generalist and International specialist. My experience on Monster has enabled me to coordinate a worldwide business and efficiently manage true integrated solutions. Fixing service deliveries and client satisfaction is a strength of mine, both at an international and local level. Leading the Chanel media business for the US market, my role has been to drive engagement with consumers through innovative and never been done solutions to sustain the growth of the brand. My knowledge and vast relationship network has helped bring together expertise and competencies to deliver against the strategic and business goals assigned by my clients.
