  EMEA Executive Director
  
  The Hero I’d like to resemble: James Bond for all his exotic adventures.
  
  My Favorite game: Assassin’s Creed, to play a charismatic hero in action-packed sequences, which take place in gorgeous and historically accurate settings – Right from the first game, it already had the potential to become a great Hollywood movie! Also Rayman because his deftness never ceases to amaze me despite the fact that he has no arms and no legs!
  
  My Gamertag: I started out with Correus, but I have picked-up a few over the years.
  
  What I love about the industry: With technology evolving at such a rapid rate, there’s always something new to invent and to create in the video game industry.
  
  What inspires me: The positive energy generated by Ubisoft teams.
- CHRISTINE BURGESS-QUEMARD
  
  Worldwide Studios Executive Director
  
  The Hero I’d like to resemble: Florence Arthaud.
  
  My Favorite game: Just Dance, because it brings the whole family together in the living room, which for me is the very essence of games. Also, Mickey Mouse Castle of Illusion in the early 90’s because it was the first game I ever finished!
  
  My Gamertag: I don’t have one. I’m comfortable acknowledging my weaknesses and especially my mistakes!
  
  What I love about the industry: The people who make this industry a passionate and exciting place to be.
  
  What inspires me: The people I work with. Ubisoft is a “people company” which is really inspiring and motivating!
- YVES GUILLEMOT
  
  Co-founder and CEO
  
  The Hero I’d like to resemble: The Prince of Persia for his determination and stature, not to mention he’s a first-class athlete! Also Ezio to have the chance to explore mythic cities and meet famous people from history like Leonardo da Vinci.
  
  My Favorite game: That’s tough! There are so many I like, but if I had to choose one, it would be Rayman because this game is deeply linked to Ubisoft’s history.
  
  My Gamertag: My kids control the consoles at home so when I’m lucky enough to get a turn I use their tags.
  
  What I love about the industry: This industry is constantly reinventing itself, which drives us to be even more creative and innovative each day. It’s stimulating because you constantly need to question and challenge yourself. Resting on one’s laurels is definitely not an option in video games!
  
  What inspires me: Learning new things every day about human nature and our limitless capabilities, about the power of our imagination and ideas.
- SERGE HASCOET
  
  Chief Creative Officer
  
  The Hero I’d like to resemble: Doctor Jones in Indiana Jones or Omar in The Wire.
  
  My Favorite game: Mario Kart – my fondest memories are playing multi, and I’m pretty hard to beat ;). Also Assassin’s Creed because it’s without a doubt the first game that offers such a high level of creative maturity. Assassin’s Creed Brotherhood offers moments of pure magic in sublime settings (the Colosseum, for example) that no other game has ever done before.
  
  My Gamertag: Sergehascoet, billyegres or fmr
  
  What I love about the industry: To be at the crossroads of human intelligence: arts, technology, math, statistics, gaming, social behavior, psychology, neuroscience… No other discipline enables you to work in so many domains with people from so many different horizons.
  
  What inspires me: The way Nintendo’s games elevate fun to an art form, the writing in Valve’s games , the simplicity and depth of Blizzard games.
- LAURENT DETOC
  
  NCSA Executive Director
  
  The Hero I’d like to resemble: All those old-school heroes. The story’s always the same: a bad-intentioned character takes advantage of a situation, becomes violently nasty and the hero comes along to show him who’s boss. I especially like those stories drawn from real life.
  
  My Favorite game: My all-time favorite game is still Golden Eye for N64. At the moment, I’m playing a lot of 3DS , I was really taken aback by the Augmented Reality – to play and to move at the same time is really cool. And when I’m with my family, Just Dance of course! Everyone can and does get their groove on.
  
  My Gamertag: Eldi
  
  What I love about the industry: The fact that it’s high-speed and just keeps going faster and faster.
  
  What inspires me: Harmony, especially in the “Now”.
