Singulier is pleased to announce that Yves Bonnefont has joined our team as our newest Managing Partner, bringing our expertise in AI and digital acceleration to new heights.

A Crucial Lever for Sustained Growth

The global AI market is projected to reach USD 2,407.02 billion by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 30.6% from 2025 to 2032 (Market and Markets) , with private equity firms increasingly prioritising software-led value creation in their portfolios. In this high-stakes environment, proven AI and digital expertise at board level is a crucial lever for sustained growth.  

Singulier welcomes Yves Bonnefont as new Managing Partner

With over 30 years of global operating experience in both traditional industry and digital innovation; Yves brings a wealth of knowledge that will help our clients execute sophisticated AI transformations at pace. 
 
Most recently, Yves served as Chief Software Officer at Stellantis, where he led the automotive giant’s software revolution across autonomous, connected, and electrified mobility. His remit included real-time supply chain optimisation, predictive maintenance, and personalised customer experiences at scale. Before that, he spent five years as CEO of DS Automobiles and over a decade as Partner at McKinsey & Company. 

After 14 years on the Executive Committee of a CAC40 company, Yves has made a deliberate shift to focus on mid-sized companies where transformation can happen at speed and where enterprise-grade capabilities create disproportionate value.  

He currently serves on multiple private equity-backed boards, giving him direct insight into where emerging technologies create genuine value and what separates successful transformations from those that stall.

Helping Private Equity Firms and Portfolio Companies Navigate AI Transformation Effectively 

Singulier’s expanded leadership brings CAC40-level capabilities to companies that can move at the speed at which transformation requires, delivering measurable EBITDA improvement through disciplined execution. 

Our approach combines strategy with digital, technology, data and AI to expertise to move from hypothesis to working prototype in weeks, not months. Yves’s operational credibility and track record of implementing at scale strengthens this proposition and enables our clients to execute transformation strategies that drive long-term value.
