Description

Water has become a strategic issue for industry, local regions and our national sovereignty. Willy Fortunato, Chairman and Chief Executive of UVGERMI, will explain how innovation can provide a practical solution to a collective challenge. Together with Andreea Drondoe, Business Manager for the Nouvelle-Aquitaine Nord Advisory Division at Bpifrance, they will also demonstrate how support, peer-to-peer exchanges and access to new markets enable companies to accelerate their impact and growth. The L’Optimiste stage is accessible only to participants with a badge granting access to the Excellence/Accélérés platform. All presentations are streamed live; you can watch them by logging in to the Live section at big.bpifrance.fr.

Printing your access badge is not mandatory to access the event. You will be asked to present the QR code at the entrance to the event and the different conference rooms.
