Description

What do investors look at when they listen to your pitch? What should you be aware of as a first-time founder?

For this second ApéroTalk, we'll have the immense pleasure to welcome Shinji Asada, Japan Head of Salesforce Ventures, and Jacques Deguest, Angel investor and co-founder of Angels Inc. Shinji and Jacques will share their experience through a panel discussion format, and will be here to answer all your questions.

ApéroTalk is our events series based on a very simple (and very French) concept: Apéro and Talk.
