VivaTech 2025: Go Behind the Scenes of Our Participation!
From June 11 to 14, 2025, Paris Expo Porte de Versailles opened its doors again for the biggest innovation event in Europe: VivaTech 2025. And let’s just say it started with a bang! By Wednesday morning, right after we set up, our team was already full of energy. Talks, meetings, interviews, panels… here’s a quick look at what you may have missed.
Skyld joins a panel talk
One of the first highlights: Marie Paindavoine, CEO of Skyld, spoke during a roundtable about this topic: “What if everything started with science entrepreneurs instead of just technology?”
Her message was clear: Scientists entrepreneurs are not required to be the CTO of their company. They are fully legitimate to be the CEO. Thanks to Sophie Pellat-Velluire and Hervé Lebret from Inria Startup Studio for leading the discussion!
AI & Cybersecurity: A Key Partnership Underscored by Wavestone
Another highlight was our contribution to the launch of Wavestone’s Cyber Startup Radar. An ideal opportunity to shed light on a subject that is still under-discussed, but crucial: the protection of on-device or on-premise artificial intelligence models.
The discussion highlighted how AI is a target as well as an opportunity for cyberdefense. Wavestone, for opening the conversation on AI security and why it matters for innovation.
A global tech community
For 3 full days, we had non-stop visitors at our booth. We met innovators, researchers, business leaders, partners, investors… from all over the world!
One thing stood out: AI security, trust, and ownership are becoming key concerns for everyone.
Cheers from the West Coast - the French one!
We can’t close VivaTech without mentioning the Brittany delegation, always proud, always there… and always with their flag!
Once again, VivaTech proved itself as one of the biggest tech events in Europe. For Skyld, it’s always a pleasure to be part of it with our amazing team and meet fellow innovators!
