COVID-19 INFORMATION: THE FIFTH EDITION OF VIVATECH WILL TAKE PLACE IN SPRING 2021
Following the cancellation of the edition scheduled for June 11-13, 2020, various scenarios have been studied, in consultation with the major partners of the event. Faced with the uncertainty of how the crisis will evolve, the conditions cannot be met for a postponement to autumn 2020 in the same format that led to the success of the four previous editions. To support the recovery, all energy will be concentrated on the spring 2021 edition.
The VivaTech team is actively working with its partners to continue serving as a facilitator of open innovation and supporting the ecosystem in this difficult period.
Our thoughts are with all those affected and those who are courageously fighting to overcome this unprecedented crisis.
