Ophélie Touati

Ophélie Touati
Founder, INC2 Services
Ophélie Touati
Tel Aviv, Israel · Active across France & Europe

Innovating — or building a climate-adaptation or cyber-resilience strategy — takes five moves: decode risk and opportunity, master the technology, design a genuine 360° strategy, bring the organisation on board, and prove the impact with KPIs.

These five moves, I've learned, sharpened, and synchronised across my career. Decode risk and opportunity: 25 years in insurance and banking, reinforced by the Certified ESG Analyst credential, and 7 years in product & strategic marketing, reading client needs and market dynamics on an ongoing basis. Master the technology: 10 years in innovation and a base in Israel — one of the world's most dynamic ecosystems in climate, AI and cyber — for a head start on opportunities, technologies and risks. Design a 360° strategy: my ISO/IEC 42001 Senior Lead Implementer certification — building and piloting AI management systems end-to-end — complemented by auditor certifications on ISO/IEC 27001, ISO 14001 and ISO/IEC 42001, which together demand a systemic view — governance, risk mapping, continuous improvement. Bring the organisation on board: 10 years in management and fully cross-functional roles — CRM, innovation, marketing — reinforced by my coaching certifications to engage every level of the organisation, from leadership to individual resistance. Prove the impact: 9 years spent on data — data mining, data science, data partnerships, defining impact KPIs — an expertise running through my entire career.

Since 2020, I've put that experience and those skills to work for major groups, funds and insurers to build a head start on innovation and risk: designing new offers or investment theses, prevention products or services, Cyber/ESG Due Diligence tools; running maturity assessments or gap analyses against international ISO standards or local regulation (EU AI Act); supporting technical teams in designing and implementing AI solutions that meet ISO 42001 requirements; supporting certification bodies in conducting ISO audits; and defining relevant indicators to measure project effectiveness and impact.

Climate Adaptation

Prevention & systemic risk

Climate affects people, resources, finances and sites — directly, and systemically. The right response is adaptation, not retreat. Done well, it becomes a source of differentiation for clients and employees alike, a driver of cost reduction, and a mark of durability.

INC2 Services offers
  • Climate strategy & roadmap — sites, people, offers, capital allocation
  • Insurance product & prevention offer design
  • New investment theses & impact KPI definition
  • Adaptation solution scouting
  • ISO 14001 gap analysis & certification-readiness audit — including audit support for certification bodies

Innovation

Design thinking · Trend detection · Scouting

Design thinking uncovers the real needs and pain points of clients, employees or partners, and shapes solutions around them. Complemented by expertise in product, data, cyber and climate — these solutions today often powered by AI — and direct access to one of the world's most innovative ecosystems, the solution becomes unique, resilient by design, and built to last.

INC2 Services offers
  • New business models, products & services
  • AI project scoping & deployment, ISO 42001-aligned
  • ISO 42001 gap analysis & AI governance readiness audit — including audit support for certification bodies
  • Customer & employee experience review
  • Market & technology potential analysis
  • Trend detection & technology scouting across ecosystems
  • Innovation KPI definition & impact measurement

Cyber Resilience

Assessment & investment thesis

Technology is both the risk and the response. Regaining control of cyber risk isn't a defensive afterthought — it's what makes the rest of the business durable. It's also the natural counterpart to digitalisation: every step taken digital created exposure that now has to be addressed, and addressing it properly — rather than patching around it — is the occasion to modernise the information system, rationalise governance, decision-making and budget around it, and turn cyber maturity itself into a differentiator for any organisation that bet on digital in the first place.

INC2 Services offers
  • Cyber investment thesis
  • Proprietary Cyber DD tool — portfolio & pre-investment screening
  • Cyber solution scouting
  • ISO 27001 gap analysis & certification-readiness audit — including audit support for certification bodies
Case Studies

Selected projects

A few examples of the work: a fund's investment thesis, an infrastructure fund's cyber due diligence, and a corporate's new business models.

Investment Thesis & ESG Framework

€1bn+ regenerative agriculture fund — with a world-leading insurance group and a major agrifood multinational

As strategic partner to a world-leading insurance group's climate arm on this mission, defined the investment thesis — identifying the fund's investment segments and their environmental and social benefits — and built the full ESG & impact framework for a €1bn fund dedicated to regenerative agriculture, developed in partnership with a world-leading insurance group and the venture arm of a major agrifood multinational. Defined theory of change, impact KPIs and SFDR Article 9 compliance from the ground up.

€1bn AUM structured and launched
Cyber DD & Critical Infrastructure

Cyber due diligence tool & market best-practice mapping — infrastructure fund backed by a top-5 European bank

Built and deployed a proprietary cyber risk assessment tool for an infrastructure fund backed by one of Europe's top-5 banking groups, covering pre-investment screening and portfolio exposure across critical assets. Identified best practices across the critical infrastructure market to benchmark fund-level cyber readiness.

Innovation & Climate Risk Prevention

3 new business models — with a world-leading insurance group

Designed and launched three prevention-focused business models with the climate arm of a world-leading insurance group, targeting finance, agriculture and industry: climate risk prevention services for financial institutions, agricultural adaptation strategies, and industrial water risk management offerings — each one reorienting an existing offer toward where the real exposure sits.
