WanSquare has been created by three founders who bring complementary experience. The group Figaro is the main shareholder.
Yves de Kerdrel
Yves Kerdrel is director of WanSquare's newsroom.
Managing Editor of the Journal des Finances and economic editorialist with Le Figaro, Yves de Kerdrel has also been daily editorialist on BFM radio and the Club de l'économie on LCI since 2004.
Formerly economic editorialist with the daily Les Echos, he made his mark by co-founding the paper's "Crible" (focus) column. His analyses of the latest economic and financial news are appreciated for their independent stance and he often uncovers scoops that he will now be sharing with WanSquare subscribers.
Yves de Kerdrel has been appointed a member of the Attali Commission and is also a member of the committee for the dissemination of economic culture.
Hilaire de Laage
Hilaire de Laage is in charge of operational management at WanSquare.
An engineer by training, Hilaire de Laage worked for IBM, Mars & Co and Bouygues before acquiring IDE, an infographics press agency, in 1993 and creating the communication agency IDE Edition. Under his direction, these entities experienced sharp growth, becoming leader in the press infographics sector and participating actively in the development of animated infographics for the web. In 2009, after selling IDE, Hilaire de Laage joined the publisher Fleurus as Managing Director.
Dominique Leblanc
Dominique Leblanc is responsible for financial and strategic planning at WanSquare.
A graduate of HEC, the Institut d’Etudes Politiques de Paris and ENA, Dominique Leblanc started his career with the Ministry for Industry before joining the Ministry of the Economy and Finance in 1984.
