Meet the new Paris 2024 IKL team members!

Paris 2024 recently reinforced its IKL team by adding five new (very sporty) members, who will work closely with their counterparts in the IOC and the OCOGs.

Amandine Hervy, a passionate basketball player and an intern in the data team back in 2022, rejoined this very same team in April. Having previously sourced information from Tokyo’s information systems, she is now focused on structuring and updating the Paris 2024 “single source of truth”. In addition, Amandine is overseeing the enhancement of the CPOP, the Geographical Information Platform of the Paris 2024 Games. She is working closely with the IOC’s data capture experts on how to best collect data at Games time and make it available to future OCOGs for their analysis and planning.

Camille Ardiet joined the IKL team in July. Working closely with Jérémie Guy (Head of Readiness and Games Learning & Data at Paris 2024), she oversees the relationships with the IOC’s Games Delivery Office. Due to her coordination role in managing relations between the IOC, the IPC and the next OCOGs, she will provide instrumental support in the knowledge-sharing process. As a youngster, Camille was an eager cross-country skier and later took up handball, as well as triathlon.

Dennisa Gorea has been with the Paris 2024 IKL team since October and is working to ensure that the OCOG leaves a historical mark. A heritage specialist, she works closely with the French National Archives to identify the documents and content of historical and patrimonial value. At Games time, Dennisa will work closely with the IOC and its Culture and Heritage Department to collect a certain number of artefacts produced by Paris 2024. Dennisa practised wushu/kung fu for no less than 15 years and was part of the Italian national team.

Victor Guitel was added to the team in July and works closely with Amandine on data mapping, especially on the CPOP, to oversee the constant updating of information. Victor will support the transfer of data collected on the Paris 2024 information systems to the next OCOGs for their own Games planning. In his free time, he loves running, having been inspired by watching the running events during the Games.

Also in July, Marine Raffort, another keen runner with marathon ambitions, joined Paris 2024 to support the design and delivery of the Observers Programme, in close collaboration with the IOC. Marine has coordinated the process of engaging the Paris 2024 FAs in the project and integrating their feedback on the activity plans. The objective is to provide the future OCOGs with invaluable “behind-the-scenes” insights into a large range of operations before, during and after the Games. Accordingly, Marine is in direct contact with the other OCOGs, especially to ensure the smooth running of the OBP.
