KARINE FORAUD
Connecting Brands with Media
With over two decades of experience, I have built my career on crafting compelling narratives and fostering meaningful connections between brands and media. My expertise spans across tourism, air transport, lifestyle, luxury, and fashion sectors.
Career Journey
My journey in this dynamic field began at Herald, then France's leading aviation PR agency, where I spent six impactful years honing my skills. This experience laid the foundation for my next big step: founding Hereban in Paris in 2002. Since then, I've had the privilege of representing global giants including Lufthansa, Star Alliance, United Airlines, Air Canada, IATA, South African Tourism, the Dominican Republic Tourist Board, Sri Lanka Tourist Board, Holiday Inn Hotels & Resorts, Flexjtet, Singapore Airlines, Scandinavian Airlines, Brussels Airport, and many more, helping them tell their stories and connect with their audiences.
In 2019, I expanded my horizons by launching and taking on the management of TravMedia France, Monaco, and Benelux. This role has allowed me to further bridge the gap between travel brands and media professionals, creating a powerful network of industry connections. That same year, I introduced the International Media Marketplace (IMM) France to Paris, which has quickly become an annual must-attend event for our industry.
My Approach
I believe in the power of authentic storytelling and strategic communication. My multilingual skills, being fluent in English and German, have been key in building strong international relationships and expanding our global reach.
My philosophy is simple: create lasting impressions. As Maya Angelou said, "People will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel." This principle guides every strategy I develop and every story I help tell.
Looking Forward
I remain committed to innovating in our dynamic industry, always seeking new ways to create impactful connections between brands and their audiences. With my dedicated team at Hereban, I continue to push boundaries and drive results for our clients in an ever-evolving media landscape. The evolution of brand-media relations is exciting, and I am thrilled to be at the forefront of shaping it.
