Benoit Raphael’s Summary
Since june 2007, I'm managing the editorial part of a new media project, "Le Post"' (www.lepost.fr), launched in September 2007 by the french group "Le Monde".
Between may 2006 and may 2007, I was in charge of innovation at "Le Dauphine Libere", a local daily newspaper in France (Grenoble). Circulation : 246.000.
I leaded the Internet strategies of the group, looking for new targets and markets.
During this year, I launched "Quelcandidat.com" for Le Dauphine Libere, a little online media dedicated to the french presidential elections. The project was a great succes, with 1,5 million unique visitors between the middle of februrary (release) and the end of april, and important media cover and business profits.
Progression of DL websites : +300% between may 2006 and may 2007.
I also own a professionnal blog (in french) : a conversation about innovations in newspapers.
