We have been innovating for more than 23 years

Thanks to 23 years of expertise in innovation funding and our unique methodology, Leyton clients can draw on complementary sources of financing while remaining fully focused on their core business.

Founded in 1997, Leyton is an international consulting firm and our teams around the world remain devoted to the economic, ecological and social development of organisations. Our consultants are all true technical experts and provide concrete solutions which contribute to the growth and enduring success of our clients’ businesses.

Our 1,500 employees, based in 32 offices across 12 countries, are passionate about their work and share the values of team spirit, innovation and sustainable development.

Leyton remains first and foremost an entrepreneurial adventure, which began with the perseverance of two determined characters: François Gouilliard, founder and Chairman, and Olivier de Beauminy, co-founder.
