| Building an AI-Native CRM for Stronger Business Value | with Maxence Dussart | 01 oct. 2026 | 00:48:42 | |
In this episode, we interview Maxence Dussart, co-founder and CEO of Familiar. A hospitality marketing practitioner turned founder, Dussart spent years working on the hotel side — experiencing firsthand the gap between the data hotels hold and their ability to act on it — before co-founding Familiar to close it. Educated at Sciences Po and Imperial College Business School, and formerly co-founder of marketing and communications at Steller Hotels, he launched Familiar as an AI-native platform built specifically for hotel groups: one that connects to every system in a hotel's stack, identifies guests worth winning back, drafts and runs personalized campaigns autonomously, and proves the revenue it generates. Familiar is based in Europe and actively expanding into the US market. ************* LINKS & RESOURCES *************
