With over 100,000 participants, including 9,000 start-ups and almost 2,000 investors, VivaTech has become a key event in the world of start-ups and innovation. It offers an excellent opportunity to showcase Luxembourg’s expansive start-up ecosystem and connect with entrepreneurs who are looking for a good base for developing their business ventures and launching commercial activities on the European market.
The Chamber of Commerce with its House of Startups has therefore once again joined forces with the Ministry of the Economy and Luxinnovation to be in Paris on 16-18 May and show what Luxembourg has to offer to dynamic start-ups. The organisers of the national pavilion will also give eight young companies the opportunity to present their offering to the international audience attending the fair.
