VivaTech 2025
La French Tech Krakow participated in VivaTech 2025, Europe’s largest technology and innovation event, held in Paris. The delegation joined a full week of activities, representing the Krakow tech ecosystem and engaging with French and European innovation communities.
The visit began with the French Tech Community Summit 2025, organized by the Mission French Tech, bringing together 114 French Tech capitals and communities from across France and the world. Highlights included opening remarks by Julie Huguet, a keynote by Clara Chappaz, workshops on international growth, community collaboration, and networking sessions with entrepreneurs and investors.
During VivaTech, La French Tech Krakow explored the exhibition halls, met with startups, founders, ecosystem builders, and public leaders, and discovered innovative solutions in AI, digital technologies, and cross-border entrepreneurship. The delegation connected with international firms and local Polish delegations, including participants from Łódź and the Lower Silesia region.
The program also included several side events and receptions:
-
A networking evening at the Hôtel de Béthague, hosted by the Romanian Embassy, celebrating collaboration between French and Romanian tech ecosystems.
-
La French Tech Europe at PariSanté Campus, which brought together 22 European French Tech communities. Four Polish startups pitched to a jury of EU-based venture capitalists, receiving valuable feedback and recognition. Winners included Migam.org and FEYENALLY.
Throughout the week, La French Tech Krakow engaged in keynotes, panels, pitch sessions, and workshops, strengthening its network with investors, corporates, and innovation leaders, and promoting Polish startups on an international stage.
La French Tech Krakow thanks Mission French Tech, all host communities, the Romanian Embassy, and the event organizers for providing a platform to showcase innovation, foster collaboration, and connect ecosystems across Europe.
