A Belgian national with Master degrees in Law (1987), Economics (1989) and Tax Management (1990) (KU Leuven) and an MBA of the University of Chicago’s Booth School (1995), Benoit started his career at Procter & Gamble. Benoit then moved into strategy consulting at Arthur D. Little and Accenture, mainly working with international consumer goods and retail companies like Gillette, Unilever, Henkel, SaraLee and AB InBev.
He then took on several general management positions in industrial companies, often in transformation and/or turnaround situations, first at Koramic investment group and later at Sovitec, where he successfully led the financial, organizational and operational turnaround of a virtually bankrupt company towards a successful management buy-out.
Benoit is also the founder and CEO of NeuroPath, a digital health platform for people suffering from neurodegenerative diseases. He divides his time between Belgium and the U.S.
Benoit joined SUSTINVEST as an associate in 2016 (through Creabattical).
