Vincent Grandjean, Founder & CEO, Propellant.digital
Vincent is the founder of Propellant.digital, a fintech that organises publicly available markets data along with clients’ internal proprietary data to empower advanced analytics and provide critical business insights. He has extensive front-to-back experience in electronic trading through his positions in Front Office eCommerce and in Information Technology. He played a key role defining Fixed Income market structure strategy at both Santander and Société Générale. This includes ownership of strategic partnerships, for which industry consortia, many of them strategic investments, figure prominently.
Vincent is a self-motivated, proactive, and action-oriented individual. He has a track record as an entrepreneur who will take the initiatives to pursue innovative solutions. He successfully launched and drove Project Sentinel with a consortium of banks. The initiative delivered a state-of-the-art platform to support banks MiFID II compliance and provide an unprecedented opportunity to improve the business commercial data across Capital Markets. This has led to the launch of a data platform that is used for Client and Trading analytics.
His new venture Propellant.digital uses this experience to organise financial market information and make it transparent, accessible, affordable and useful to its ecosystem.
Prior to launching Propellant.digital last year, he held various roles at Santander, Société Générale and Citigroup. Before his move into Fixed Income, he managed an Equity low latency connectivity technology team at UBS. Vincent started his career as a business consultant for PriceWaterhouseCoopers in Luxembourg.
