What Madamemonsieur Communication(s) does

Madamemonsieur Communication(s) is a Paris-based, privately held French communication agency founded in 2002 by former L'Etudiant journalists Alexandre Vanadia and Luc Bricout, later joined by Christel Monge. The firm delivers integrated 360-degree communication services across eight structured expertise areas: audit and consulting, branding and brand strategy, press relations, digital strategy, audiovisual production, commercial management strategy, editorial strategy and publishing, and event management. It is deeply specialized in the French higher education, orientation, and professions (ESR) sector, serving universities, business schools, engineering schools, OPCOs (Opérateurs de Compétences), and professional bodies.

The agency operates on a B2B professional-services model with custom, project-based pricing and direct enterprise sales to communication and marketing decision makers at client institutions. Its go-to-market combines direct field sales with thought-leadership content, including the Com'Together podcast series co-produced with ARCES (the French association of higher education communication directors). Demonstrated campaign outcomes include 80+ media outlets reached for a client launch, 20M+ people reached on a social media campaign, and 1M+ video views on another campaign, evidencing meaningful production and earned-media capabilities.

The firm has grown organically from its two-founder press relations and audiovisual origin to a 35-person team as of 2024-2025, serving 50+ clients across the ESR sector. It is entirely self-funded, with no disclosed external institutional investment, and operates exclusively from its Paris headquarters. In 2023, it refreshed its brand identity and website on its 20th anniversary, and in 2024 it received the TOP/COM Silver Prize for a BtoB communication strategy campaign developed for the CNCC.
