I'm Bérengère Fally, a strategic executive with 25 years of international experience, and what people tend to call an atypical profile.
I connect people, technologies and institutions to turn ambitious ideas into cross-border innovation.
My work sits at the crossroads of innovation, technology, creativity, education, research and industry... not because I couldn't choose, but because the most valuable solutions tend to live exactly where these worlds intersect.
Over two decades, I've secured €15M+ in EU and public funding, governed cross-border programmes and consortia, and advised public authorities and executive teams on strategic orientation.
I've spoken and facilitated at European and international events, contributed to technology transfer from research to industry, and supported the development of innovation ecosystems across sectors. In recent years, this work has increasingly focused on digital creativity and the convergence of AI, XR, gaming and media, helping organisations translate emerging technologies into entrepreneurship, skills development and economic impact.
I have also initiated and led business development cycles, identifying strategic opportunities, structuring value propositions and bringing the right stakeholders to the table to turn them into concrete partnerships or funded programmes.
The approach has always been the same: understand how the system works, find the leverage point, build the stakeholder engagement that makes things move sustainably.
One thread that has run through all of it: the conviction that innovation only delivers its full potential when it's genuinely accessible. That means paying attention to who's in the room, who isn't, and why... whether that's women in technology, underrepresented communities in digital transformation, or regions that tend to get left behind in the conversation.
Based in Belgium, I combine executive responsibilities with a limited number of strategic advisory and European programme development assignments. I work across Europe and internationally, helping organisations build partnerships, secure funding and strengthen innovation ecosystems.
