Brice’s professional adventure began at the age of 23 when he joined Paparazzi, a communication agency. No doubt about it : Brice likes the model. To a point where he decides to create his own business : Ex Machina was born.

Ex Machina specialized in communication and tech, long before the word became fashionable. « We did everything : video editing, websites, CD-Roms… », lists Brice.

At the same time, he made himself a name in the media by creating Cyber Café 21, a program born in 1996 that became a must listen to and that lasted ten years. « I made radio and TV programs for Radio 21, reknowed RTBF radio channel » says Brice.

The Emakina Group is an independent group of communication agencies in Europe. Emakina was founded in 2001, with the merger of Ex Machina and Emalaya.

Brice founded digital design studio Ex Machina, while Denis Steisel started e-business agency Emalaya in 1998.

Headquartered in Belgium, it also has agencies in Austria, Croatia, France, India, KSA, Poland, Qatar, Serbia, Sweden, Singapore, Switzerland, The Netherlands, Turkey, UAE etc… and via its agency The Reference it opened an agency in the US in 2016.

In 2021 Emakina Group switched to the American flag. It was subject to a successful takeover bid by EPAM Systems.

Emakina has executed digital projects for companies like Audi, AXA, Brussels Airlines, Deutsche Bank, Education Above All, Engie Electrabel, FIVB, Karl Lagerfeld, Lufthansa, Parrot, Rituals, and Segway.
