As companies face increasing complexity in managing ownership, equity compensation, and incentive programmes, the need for connected, flexible, and scalable technology has never been greater. By combining enterprise-grade technology with deep equity expertise, Allshares is building a platform that simplifies end-to-end ownership and incentive management for companies.

Sylvain first joined Amalia as its first employee in 2020, working alongside the founders to bootstrap the company and build its technology from the ground up. Following a change in ownership in 2023, he stepped into the CTO role at Amalia before the company was acquired by Allshares.

Today, Sylvain sees his new role as an opportunity to bring together the technology teams and products that have come together through Allshares’ growth.

“Allshares is a merger of companies that all have their strengths. We have the experience of the former Bolago team on share registries and cap tables, the knowledge of the team around different LTI types, use cases, and customer feedback, as well as the former Amalia team on new technology and self-service. I’m confident that we have the experience and the people to build software that will take Allshares to the next level.”

LTI management will always involve complexity. For Sylvain, technology should make that complexity easier to navigate through automation, guided processes, and simulations.

“What we want to do is make it much easier for admins to manage and guide them through processes step by step, automate repetitive tasks, let them simulate different scenarios, and make reporting easier to understand.”

By bringing together ownership, company history, strategy, and market benchmarks, Allshares can give customers a more connected way to design, execute, and analyse their incentive plans. This is the vision behind Allshares Studios, bringing Intelligence, Design, LTI, STI, and Governance together in one platform.

“The goal is to offer our customers a seamless platform, which allows them to go from benchmarking the market to delivering their LTI plans to their participants in a single product.”

Looking ahead, Sylvain sees AI as an opportunity to make the expertise behind incentive management more accessible through the product. With Amie, the integrated AI assistant, Allshares is exploring how technology can analyse plans and data, help users understand complex compensation structures and surface relevant insights, while keeping human expertise at the heart of the process.

The long-term ambition is to bring equity and bonus management together in the same software, helping companies continuously understand, design, and adapt their incentive programmes.

“The strength of our offer is going to be the fact that we’re bringing bonus and equity together in the same software. This will help our customers manage both short- and long-term incentives, monitor performance and adapt their incentive plans as their needs evolve.”

As Chief Technology Officer, Sylvain will lead Allshares’ technology organisation and continue bringing together the company’s teams, products and technology to shape the future of ownership and incentive management.
