Dinner - debate: €60.00
On this occasion, we invite you to enjoy a dinner-debate while engaging in a conversation with Michaël Benabou, The Builder of Tech Startups.
Michaël Benabou is an accomplished French entrepreneur whose exceptional career has left its mark on the technology ecosystem. Co-founder of Vente-Privee (now Veepee), he transformed a start-up with zero sales into a European e-commerce giant, reaching 2 billion euros in just 13 years.
After this success story, he turned to investing, creating Financière Saint James, a family office that stands out as the third most active investor in French technology startups. His investment philosophy is based on the conviction of supporting bold ideas driven by exceptional individuals.Today, Michaël continues to innovate with Tapbuy, a startup that is revolutionizing the mobile shopping experience, promising an average 22% increase in sales for e-retailers. At the same time, he chairs Global Venture Access, an ambitious fund of funds aiming to raise $100 million to invest in top venture capital funds. His motto, Experience is what makes us recognize mistakes when we make them again, perfectly reflects his ability to turn obstacles into opportunities, making him a visionary entrepreneur and investor in the French tech ecosystem.
