Overview

Entrepreneur First (EF) is a global talent investor and accelerator focusing on bringing together exceptional individuals to build innovative startups from scratch. The French branch of Entrepreneur First, based in Paris, is a key hub in EF's global network, attracting top talent from across Europe. Unlike traditional accelerators, EF doesn't require founders to have a team or even a concrete idea when they join. Instead, EF Paris provides a structured program that helps individuals find co-founders, develop ideas, and build high-growth companies. Over several months, participants receive mentorship, funding, and access to a global network of investors and industry leaders. The program culminates in a Demo Day, where newly formed startups pitch their ventures to an audience of investors. Entrepreneur First Paris is known for its unique approach to entrepreneurship, fostering a collaborative environment that turns ambitious individuals into successful founders and helping them launch startups with global impact.
