Julien did an outstanding talk on VC funding for a chatbot group I sponsor in Lyon, France. He's extremely knowledgeable and very, very well connected among VCs and high net worth investors. If you have a business plan and you're looking for finance I definitely you ask if Julien is available to help you raise funds. He's also a brilliant speaker...

I met Julien in Lyon several times in the last 8 years and he is definitely the guy you need to know to have access to the startup ecosystem. I have always been impressed by Julien drive and energy in running different events as well as being a facilitator towards the ecosystem. Julien has showed a solid understanding of startup business model and the critical issues connected to high growth.

      Based on my passion for the Startup movement, but also my passion for traveling, I decided to launch WikiTrip.com.I have learned and applied the Lean Startup methodology. I went form a usual well-written and heavy business plan to a lighter business model using an agile approach of development. I went from outsourcing the development to an in-house prototyping strategy.I also applied the SCRUM project management methodology to develop our prototypes.

They give the freedom to develop any project that I felt tuned with their philosophy and vision.I had many successes, among them 2 significant projects: “13 Skate Tour” and “Communiq’Raison”. These two projects survived for 5 years after I left. The success came from the good management of the different stakeholders involve in those projects, either NGOs, Government bodies and volunteers.I learned how to manage a cross-functional team management. Moreover, I developed my capability to be a leader.
