They Say It Best

  • Christophe Minodier
    Co-founder @JOOKS

    “We are now working with large companies such as RATP as well as Air France. This is proof that VivaTech is a place where we can meet great contacts and accelerate a decision to start working with a company."

     
     
  • Moody Soliman
    CEO @Ryp Labs

    “[This is] one of the biggest differentiators between VivaTech and other conferences... At VivaTech, we got requests from Qatar, Iran, Chile, and other European countries from people who had seen us at the event. We were able to grow our network quite a bit from an investment standpoint and potential customers and clients as well.”
  • Ruben Hallali
    CEO @HD Rain

    "Thanks to the Huawei Startup Challenge organised by VivaTech, we had the opportunity to create many connections. During two or three days of the event we had about 50 to 60% of our leads for the next year."
