Jerome Rigaud graduated first from ÉSAD (2000 - Reims, France) and then from ÉCAL (2004 - Lausanne, Switzerland). Currently based in London he develops digital-based works mainly influenced by processes and collaborations across the fields of art, design, science, business and technology. Led by discovery, exploration and through discussion he develops and redefines uses for digital media and web-sites through creative programming and design.

In 2005, he co-founded Electronest with Fritz Menzer and Pierre Schmidt. Electronest is a platform for online collaboration through which they use/develop open source softwares and publicly share technical solutions and new conceptual references. Since its inception, Electronest as a cultural and commercial platform, has developed a series of websites for clients (individuals, companies and institutions) where they experiment with navigation modes and representational codes.

In 2008, he co-founded DesignMarketo with Alexandre Bettler in London. DesignMarketo originated with the aim to help designer-friends to distribute their self-produced range of objects. They created an online shop, along with a series of events and workshops promoting self-production of up-and-coming designers; each event being a pretext to run new commissions of objects for particular contexts (Milan Salone del Mobile, London Design Festival, The Barbican, etc.)
