Welcome to UPComingVC, the Venture Capital Investment Challenge held at STATION F, the renowned startup campus. In its 2nd edition in France, UPComingVC brought together a diverse group of participants, showcasing the best of the entrepreneurial ecosystem.

UPComingVC is an opportunity for aspiring startups and VCs to interact, learn, and network with industry professionals. With a focus on B2B tech, including SaaS, APIs, and AI, Alven Capital and other prestigious VCs provided insights on their investment strategies at different stages of a startup’s growth, from seed to Series A.

Special thanks to our sponsors, eCap Partner, Monaize, and Komodo, for their valuable support and contribution. La French Tech played a significant role in extending their support to UPComingVC at the French Tech Central.
