Ulric Le Grand is a French entrepreneur, who has founded and co-founded several startups, including Gens de Confiance, with Nicolas and Enguerrand. He serves as the CEO of Gens de Confiance, a new type of general ads marketplace that connects trusted individuals for buying, selling, and renting goods and services. Indeed, every new member must be recommended and sponsored by at least three current members.
