They Say It Best
ChatLabs
For Michel, the opportunity to exhibit his startup with the world leader in luxury like LVMH at VivaTech was tremendous. “It’s impossible not to stop by the LVMH booth when you are at VivaTech. So we were super busy and got a lot of exposure. I lost my voice within 24 hours with the amount of speaking we were doing.”
Why should startups exhibit at VivaTech?
"Getting leads is one of the biggest value propositions of VivaTech. You'll sign more clients by coming here, and you'll also get to see their first impressions and how they react to your product."
