Paris, Île-de-France, France I've started helping entrepreneurs in 1999, in Grenoble... pro bono. Since then, and even when we decided to go to Silicon Valley with the Timefunding Group, the idea has always been this: give and take is a basic rule. I've received my share of advice -good and bad!-, I've learned a lot listening to my mentors, I've grown a confident entrepreneur thanks to the help and knowledge of others... it feels natural to give some of that back!

Les Déterminés are on the same page: the energy that Moussa and his team are putting in this great association deserves a full engagement and a real passion for entrepreneurship. This is what I liked about the association. Not to mention the quality of the entrepreneurs projects! I try my best to be useful talking about purpose, cap table, business association, brand platform, customer acquisition, marketing, sales, fund raising, and also by making accurate intros and sharing my network! I love Les Déterminés! Show less

A year ago (Q4 2016), so many of you have been supportive of the TimeFunding. Since then, you’ve been following the whereabouts of this great project. Thanks to you, the TimeFunding met its public in France where you’ve been more than 3000 to join the platform either as individuals or as startups. From the very beginning, our goal was to take the TimeFunding internationally. Thanks to the Refiners, a San Francisco based acceleration program, we’ve been able to work on this in California for 4 months. And thanks to that experience, we now know that we couldn’t reach market fit with the project such as it was, and it led us to other opportunities. We had to take action. That’s why Pierre-Yves, one of the former 4 associates, has decided to continue the TimeFunding activity in France, whereas Elodie, Christophe and Nash are now invested in a new project : the BFC Group.

2, rue de la Franche Comté, 75003, Paris Network & program Director. Production of 400 hours of cultural content. More than 900 guests to our shows. First online cultural webtv in France. Our mistake : never having thought of PUREchannel as a business... we were there before Kombini, for instance... but we always saw PUREchannel as a toy... too bad. Could have been something.
