Christophe joins from FTI Consulting, where he was joint Global Head of its telecoms practice. He began his career with McKinsey in 2000 in Paris and then New York, before joining Delta Partners in South Africa in 2012 and moving to the US in 2020 after the acquisition of Delta Partners by FTI.

Gregory Pankert, Managing Partner, Global TIME Practice at ADL, comments, "As many telco operators are struggling to fuel growth, operators are reviewing their commercial strategies and the efficiency of their enablers. Having delivered tangible benefits for telecom operators, tech players and investors, Christophe brings strong expertise in this area. He combines perfectly well strong US and international experience. I'm very pleased to welcome Christophe in our US-based team."

Christophe Meunier, Partner at ADL, adds, "Changing technology and evolving customer needs mean that broadband and fiber providers have to overhaul their commercial strategies to compete moving forward. ADL already has a strong global reputation for supporting telecoms companies as they transform, and I aim to work with my colleagues to help accelerate growth for the practice, and success for our clients."

Christophe holds an MBA from Massachusetts Institute of Technology in the United States, and a bachelor's degree from the Ecole Nationale Supérieure de l'Aéronautique et de l'Espace, Toulouse, France, in aerospace engineering.
