Viva Technology

Viva Tech was founded in 2016 through a collaboration of Publicis Groupe and Les Echos. In just a few years, VivaTech became Europe’s biggest tech and startup event. But an international conference with thousands of exhibitors and startups doesn’t come together overnight. For our event that happens at the beginning of the summer, our teams start building the program the autumn before and ramp up operations even more right before June.

Over the years, we have had speakers on our stage like Mark Zuckerberg, Tim Cook, Sumbul Desai, CZ, Tami Bhaumik, plus many others. Supporting us all year long and bringing together the most important startup ecosystems are our partners such as Google, LVMH, Orange, BNP Paribas, La Poste, Huawei, Salesforce, and Microsoft.

Today’s business and societal challenges are enormous. But positive change can happen under the right conditions. If we fuel the power of sustainable innovation with a business mindset, we can generate positive outcomes for our tech-driven future.

This future starts with inspiring people, which is why the VivaTech team grows every year by recruiting top talent.

VivaTech is Europe’s biggest Tech and Startup event, bringing together the best startups and the hottest technologies, uniting the brightest minds to challenge the status quo and build the future — together. Join us!

We believe that technology is an engine for positive change and sustainable business. Business can ignite opportunities to invest in the solutions we need to construct our future that responds to the market and planetary challenges, responsibly.

The VivaTech team comes together to create as many opportunities for this change as possible – but doesn't forget to have fun while doing it. Our team members describe the culture of VivaTech as engaging, collaborative, playful, and motivating.
