Laurent Suspène - Managing Partner

I have a PhD in Polymer Chemistry and I have spent more than 25 years working internationally at executive level in the Chemical industry. I have a vast experience in Management, R&D, Production, Sales & Marketing, Business Development as well as M&A and restructuration. 

I have lived and worked for multinational as well as privately owned companies in different countries and regions of the world: France, USA, Spain, South Korea, Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong, Shanghai and  I am quite familiar with practices and cultural differences.

I have a deep understanding of the different roles one can find in a chemical company because at one point of time or another, I either occupied it myself or I have directly managed people in that position.  Over the years, I have had to recruit myself many people for a lot of different positions and with the support of the Antal International Network I am totally confident with the fact that I can help companies improve their fortune by hiring the right individuals they need to be successful.
