Emmanuel Schalit

CEO, Dashlane

Emmanuel Schalit is the CEO at Dashlane, a New York and Paris-based tech start-up that revolutionizes e-commerce and the online experience by putting data in the hands of users, rather than tech companies. Dashlane empowers users to buy online and fill in forms in a flash, and aggregates their online buying, IDs, passwords, and other important information in a secure place -- accessible from synced devices -- that no one else can access.

Emmanuel has more than 15 years experience in management, international business and product innovation across high-tech, media entertainment and distribution industries.

Before joining Dashlane, he was the CEO of CBS Outdoor France, a national leader in outdoor advertising. Prior to that, he was Senior Vice President and Chief Strategy Officer at Los Angeles-based Vivendi Universal Games, which was the holding company for leading games studios such as Blizzard Entertainment and Sierra Entertainment. Emmanuel was also previously the founder and CEO of Flipside.com, a leader in online games with more than 15 million unique visitors.

He holds a Master's degree from Ecole Polytechnique in Paris, and a Ph.D. in Computer Science from Université de Toulouse. He also studied Marketing and Finance in the Executive Education program at Harvard Business School.
