Last week, we were so excited to be able to attend #VivaTech and connect with so many of our entrepreneurs who were showcasing their innovative solutions to help deliver a more sustainable future. It was inspiring to meet the teams at netcarbon, Hyperplan, Holis, Cybeletech, CircularPlace, FluxGen, and Witty Works. We were particularly proud to be able to sponsor the Investors Lounge, connecting business leaders at the heart of the groundbreaking technology and innovation at the event. As much as it was exciting to attend and connect with so many likeminded people, it was fantastic to see how so many of our entrepreneurs were able to take advantage of the opportunities presented to them. "VivaTech is as rewarding as ever, both in terms of its eclectic mix of audiences and startups, and the impact of the encounters we make there. This year was no exception for Cybeletech, and we came away with some real business and partnership opportunities." - Christophe Shaw, President & CEO, Cybeletech “The excitement of VivaTech enabled us to have rich exchanges with our priority targets. From a French trading company to an African cooperative, not to mention government entities, no one wanted to miss this event, and the conversations generated reinforced the mission we defend on a daily basis.” - Ruben Sabah, Co-founder and CEO, Hyperplan We’re already looking forward to next year’s event!
