Aurelien Fonteneau

General Manager- We are Social- Ad Innovation

Aurelien has spent his entire 17-year career at the crossroads of digital, where creativity meets media performance. He’s fluent in the language of social media - owned, paid, and anything in between - and thrives in fast-moving, culturally driven environments. He joined We Are Social in 2010, first in London, then Dubai in 2014, where he helped shape the agency’s growth and now leads the office as General Manager. He had a stint at BETC, named the world’s most creative agency by WARC in 2024, where he sharpened his approach to digital-first thinking inside a traditionally brand-led environment. With a background that bridges strategic clarity and social fluency, he brings a rare mix of craft, curiosity, and cultural instinct to every brand challenge.
