I walked into vivatech couple of weeks ago, focused on fundraising but I walked out with my mind set on traction. Something shifted that week. Between the France Angels 25th anniversary and three days of sitting at panels, pitches, and conversations with founders building things that actually matter, I stopped chasing the conventional founder’s path. For me traction is the number of lives transformed through proud_co.lab and the main reason why I moved to Paris, leaving everything behind “To transform lives” 🌻 #VivaTech2026 #ProudCoLab #DEI #foundermindset #startupparis
