2. International Business Development. Dictao. 2009 - 2014
Florent Latour. Founder at Mossettes Technologies. Formerly General Manager DICTAO. Frédéric's
talent and hard work was instrumental in Dictao becoming the leading provider of technical compliance
services in Europe. It was no small feat for a company new to that industry and with limited experience
outside its French home market, and we owe him a great deal. Beyond his keen marketing eye and
obvious ability to connect with people, Frédéric has the grit and relentless enthusiasm that inspires
teams and customers. His blend of high - level thinking and day - to - day execution is in my
experience very hard to come by and makes him a formidable assets to entrepreneurs. March 18,
2014, Florent managed Frederic at DICTAO
Julien Montagne. Sales and Business Development - Digital Security - HEC Paris EMBA, MSCS.
Frederic Engel knows how to monetize a story into results. His capability to invite people to say "yes,
let's go" is striking. Not only for the fun side of saying Yes we can :-). Also because Fred demonstrates
the win-win-win sides of what he sells in terms of convenience, costs and confidence, something that
makes sense for CEOs, CFOs and CTOs he meets with. Another example is Dictao base line:
"evidence drives confidence." If it comes from him, it's because it verifies what he does and who he is,
naturally. February 26, 2014, Julien was a colleague of Frederic when working at DICTAO
Filippo Ferri. Country Manager at Evolution Gaming. Formerly with Gaming Labs International.
Frederic to me is a fascinating person. His effortless charm makes him immediately intimate with
anybody. Kings or CEOs, everyone is within his reach. He has a theory and a diagram for everything:
his brain works to turn chaos into order with unfailing pragmatism. Temporarily lent to the gaming
industry, Frederic has turned the driest of technological concepts into the theory of relativity, and
spoken about it to pretty much everyone around. I can hardly imagine that there's anything that he is
not capable of achieving. February 9, 2014, Filippo was with another company when working with
Frederic
Ian Feather. Business Development at Rational Group (PokerStars). Frederic is both extremely
knowledgeable about his subject matter and highly personable. In the time I have known him he has
demonstrated expert knowledge of the sector and has developed a fantastic network of key people in
the industry. Frederic is always full of ideas and keen to expand his knowledge, continually looking to
add value for his clients and employer. It’s always a pleasure meeting with him. February 18, 2014, Ian
was Frederic's client when working with Frederic

players. May 4, 2012, Dr. Joerg was with another company when working with Frederic
Roger Parkes. Co-founder and Director. Formerly with Betfair. Frederic knows his subject well and is a
great ambassador for Dictao. He presents his ideas well and always strives to understand the client's
business to meet their expectations. I would recommend his services. May 4, 2012, Roger was
Frederic's client when working with Frederic
Jonathan Chamma. Ambitious Leader. Playtech. Playtech chosen Dictao as the vault service provider
for Spain and Denmark during 2011. Frederic was key on pushing us, Playtech, to chose

everything and supporting our business professionally, assuring delivery on time and with top quality.

found him to be among the most savvy of sources, and my stories benefited much from his insights
and knowledge of developments in his field, which at the time was public-key infrastructures and
similar technologies for securing network communications. In short, Frédéric has a keen eye for the
dynamics of the markets and technologies he works with, and he is able to communicate well his

interviewing him in the future as he moves to other markets of mutual interest. January 20, 2008, Dan
