Our course
UMALIS, THE SECRETS OF SUCCESS
After a successful experience in supporting executives in professional retraining, Christian Person founded Umalis Group in 2008 with a strong ambition: to stand out through a sense of innovation and promote new forms of work. It is for this reason, moreover, that Umalis has specialized in wage portage dedicated to the self-employed in search of professional autonomy associated with social and wage security.
Driven by an unwavering desire to develop his group and diversify its activities, Christian Person decided in 2012 to set up Umalis Tunisia, the subsidiary of Umalis Group in Tunis. This international center specializes in the design and development of digital solutions.
2014 marks a particularly important stage in the journey of Umalis. The Group goes public on Euronext Access, and creates Umalis Lab, an employment research laboratory. 2014 is also the year of the launch of the Umapp me project, a mobile application based on the concept of geolocation to find help on a daily basis.
The ambition to venture into new development strategies led the company in 2015 to develop its own media center. She then joined forces with Dounyazed Mesli, a former player and volunteer communications manager at FF Issy, to create Cœurs de Foot, a young media specializing in women’s football in France and internationally.
In 2016, a new step was taken, that of the acquisition of Africa Top Sport, the leading sports information portal in French-speaking Africa, a center which very quickly gave birth to Africa Top Success and Africa Top Radio.
