Tech Science Elite

What Tech Science Elite does

Tech Science Elite is a privately held, Paris-based boutique recruitment and consulting firm established in 2017 that sources and places senior technology, data science, AI, blockchain, and creative-thinking experts for enterprise digital transformation, R&D, and innovation projects. Operated as a single-shareholder SASU with a stated headcount of 11–50, the firm targets CTOs, technical directors, data leaders, and HR departments at enterprise and mid-market clients, predominantly in France and the broader European market.

The service architecture centers on three core offerings — Expert Placement (matching pre-vetted senior profiles to client mandates), Recruitment Services (executive search from CTO to backend developer, candidate sourcing for HR, and growth-hacking coaching for in-house recruiters), and Creative Tech Profiles (assembly of agile R&D teams for POC/MVP delivery). Three add-on modules extend that core: expert-led Conferences and innovation workshops, Training in technologies such as Golang, Cloud, Data Sciences, and Blockchain, and Research Partnership introductions to academic laboratories with assistance on technology partnership contracts. The stated differentiator is a curated expert network assembled over 15+ years of candidate-career tracking and alumni relationships at prestigious French science and engineering universities, combined with growth-hacking techniques applied to direct sourcing.

Commercially, Tech Science Elite runs a direct, consultation-led B2B sales motion with mandates quoted per search and multi-year contract cadences; pricing is not publicly disclosed. Revenue is generated almost exclusively through professional-services fees on placements, training, and conference engagements, with no platform subscription, SaaS, or marketplace component, and no institutional investors or funding rounds disclosed. Marketing and demand generation rely on a company blog, the 'Hot News' email newsletter, and organic social channels (LinkedIn, Facebook, X), and the entire operation is run from a single Paris headquarters at 40 rue du Louvre.
