Francois is obsessed by construction and making things since his childhood. 

He graduated in timber engineering and was a partner in an architecture office in Paris before founding LEKO. Since then, François led multiple funding rounds to develop a brand new patented wooden constructive system, with the firm intention to accelerate the global transition toward sustainable housing. 

In 2016, François won the Grand Prix of the prestigious CNAM Foundation that aims to reward a product that has an innovative character in the field of construction or architecture. François led LEKO through many turmoil towards remarkable successes, building a portfolio of constructors & developers in the Benelux region, shaping and managing a Team of bold A-players, and relentlessly developing innovative solutions to disrupt the construction industry and deliver sustainable, high-quality and tailored housing much faster than what is currently possible.
