Gilles Fedak is a technology entrepreneur and researcher with nine years of commercial experience and a two-decade academic track record in distributed and large-scale computing. As CEO and Co‑Founder of iEx.ec he builds middleware that connects blockchain-based dApps to scalable, secure computing and data resources, translating long-term research (XtremWeb, desktop/grid computing) into a production decentralized cloud. He has led research teams at INRIA, co-created a CNRS/INRIA spin-off and now directs a joint lab on scalability and privacy in decentralized marketplaces, blending deep systems expertise with startup execution. Based in the Greater Lyon Area, he also serves on the board of WiSEED and helped found France’s industry association for digital assets, showing a rare mix of technical, academic and industry leadership. An understated detail: his career began with volunteer and desktop-grid scheduling research that directly informed the distributed computing primitives behind his current blockchain-cloud work.
