--- Cancellation and rescheduling at the beginning of the year

Did you know that there are over 1 million start-ups in France, employing over 1.5 million people?

In just a few years, start-ups have become one of the lungs of our economy, and there's no end in sight, in this period of economic transformation that requires us to wage the battle of industrialization and innovation at the same time!

In this field as in others, Les Ponts alumni are in the limelight: a unicorn, Alan, the e-health start-up, two very successful fund-raisings last month, Incepto, the "Netflix of medical imaging" and Innovafeed, the Foodtech nugget, which raised 27 and 140 million euros respectively...

The Ponts Alumni program at Station F has supported 74 start-ups since its launch in 2017.The most promising of these are rewarded by the Foundation, with the "Une Nuit pour Entreprendre" prize and the "Prix d'Encouragement à l'Entrepreneuriat".

On November 29 at 7pm, we invite you to an evening of meetings and exchanges with the new animation team, through round tables devoted to themes such as :

• The business plan, the fund-raising process, how to support the manager, HR issues, finding a partner
• Pitfalls in the start-up process
• Synergies with existing groups, XMP entrepreneurs, Business Angels
