Last week, a delegation of enthusiastic and ambitious entrepreneurs gathered on both sides of the Atlantic for the Transatlantic Leaders Forum organised by French Founders, BNP Paribas and La French Tech America.
The Transatlantic Leaders Forum annually brings together European and American leaders who share their vision of innovation. It is a hybrid (face-to-face and digital) and bilingual meeting, doubly moored in Paris and New York and singularly echoing the aspirations of alegria.tech on the American continent.
What we can learn from it:
- The return to a normality that facilitates encounters, enhances exchanges and encourages collaborations was welcomed
- We recognised the need to integrate the impact of our actions into the heart of our projects with Emmanuel Faber and Virginie Morgon
- We discussed the model for future cities with Pierre-André de Chalendar and the development of our employees
- We renewed our wishes with Caroline Ramade to see a tech industry better represented by its women
- We were impressed by Gaby Goldberg 's presentation, which gave us the keys to reading the Web3.0 Internet
- The quality of the finalists and the diversity of the celebrated projects was praised, with Olivier Moingeon of Exclusiblewinning the award.
- We were touched by the demonstration of friendship and trust that can develop between a VC and an entrepreneur Jonathan Cherki, founder of ContentSquare with Michel Combes of SoftBank.
- It was realised that there was no intelligence without learning, and that in order to flourish, it relied on the richness of its networks.
Finally, we were transported for a moment in space with Tejpaul Bhatia whose optimism lets us foresee a starry and shared horizon.
