Summary
Clément Duhart is a technology leader and researcher with a decade-long track record building transdisciplinary labs and applied AI programs, currently serving as Director of Strategy & Innovation at IONIS Education Group. He founded and led the Institute for Future Technologies and De Vinci Innovation Center, creating hubs that blend design, engineering, art and entrepreneurship to train students and launch startups. Trained as an embedded systems engineer with a master’s in AI from the Sorbonne and a PhD in computer science, his work shifted to deep learning applied to human–machine interfaces, mixed reality and swarm robotics. His MIT Media Lab tenure produced field-deployed deep learning and wireless sensor systems for large-scale wetland restoration, combining ecology, acoustic sensing and tele-presence tools. He supervises PhD projects spanning trust in deep models to soft robotic fabrication, reflecting a rare mix of hands-on hardware, AI research and educational leadership. Based between Boston and France, he quietly bridges academic rigour with pragmatic innovation to bring invisible, human-centered technologies into real-world environments.
