Areas of focus

Gwenaëlle is a Partner at EY Société d'Avocats and Head of the Tax Technology & Transformation (TTT) practice.

Gwenaëlle works on international taxation and IT projects using the new technologies available (analytics, data visualization, ERP, blockchain etc.), to drive outputs such as: computerized audits, FEC, SAF-T, electronic invoicing, ERP configuration, and automation solutions based on robotics software.

Gwenaëlle studied law at the University of Paris and became a lawyer. It was the European VAT that led her to develop a passion for IT, as this tax has been managed by the ERP of multinationals since the mid-1990s. Taxes were the first to be impacted by the emergence of electronic invoicing and computerized audits.

Gwenaëlle is a recognized author. Her works include:

“Des systems d’information aux blockchains” [From IT systems to blockchain], chapter relating to Tax proof, collective book, 2021
