A reserve officer and founder of “The Strategic Agenda,” she helps organizations regain control of information by sharing best practices from the security, defense, and strategic thinking sectors with their teams.
Vadym Adamov

Ukrainian soldier and filmmaker Vadym Adamov fought for two years on the front lines, notably at Bakhmut, the most intense land battle on the European continent since World War II. Wounded twice, he was awarded the Defender of Ukraine Medal by Volodymyr Zelensky.
A member of VictoryDrones, the country’s leading military technology training organization, he is involved in establishing the world’s first official FPV drone school.

Nicolas Brault
Founder
A graduate of Sciences Po Paris and the Saint-Cyr Military Academy, Captain Nicolas Brault taught history in Seine-Saint-Denis before becoming an officer. After commanding Foreign Legionnaires on overseas and domestic operations, he served as head of the Mountain Commando Group (GCM), then director of a unit dedicated to supporting 1,100 Legionnaires. Having transitioned out of the military in 2025, he remains committed as an “ambassador of the French Army” through his military podcast, media commentary, and his book Giving Orders Is Not Enough, published by Michel Lafon.
His new mission: to strengthen leaders and their organizations through consulting and training on culture, command, and engagement.
