We’re organizing the Israeli 7th delegation to VivaTech Paris https://vivatechnology.com/ for startups and investors – and again, it’s pro bono (delegation, side-event, VivaTech pass are on us, while you take care of flight/accommodation)! Save the date: May 21 to May 23, 2024.
If global organizations are key for your business, come and engage with FR global leaders with pavilions, such as BNP Paribas, Bouygues, Capgemini, Crédit Agricole, EDF, Engie, JCDecaux, La Poste, LVMH, L’Oréal, Orange, Renault, Sanofi, SNCF, TotalEnergies and major Regions, such as Auvergne Rhone-Alpes (led by Lyon), Occitanie (led by Montpellier and Toulouse), Régions Sud (led by Marseille and Nice) and more from France / Europe and Japan (guest country). Sometimes, we facilitate meetings with major brands that join as participants without a pavilion, such as Carrefour, Michelin, Saint-Gobain, Sodexo, Stellantis and more.
And of course, we’ll organize our yearly France-Israel side event at VivaTech, on May 21 in the late afternoon. Stay tuned!
Wanna join? APPLY NOW!
(NEW: 3 more tickets will be decided on Sunday 28/04 week)
Still not convinced? Look at the VivaTech expo, at the main corporations and partners, and feel the vibes of the Israeli delegation from last year’s pictures. Think for a minute why 100+ Israeli startups have joined us (and sometimes more than once) and also why Israeli soonicorns and unicorns have joined VivaTech too, such as Electreon, Monday.com, SimilarWeb, Taboola… And Israeli investors too, such as Consensus, Cukierman, Mobilion, OurCrowd and more…
