According to Dealroom’s Global Tech Ecosystem Index 2025, Paris just overtook London as the #1 startup hub in Europe — and is now fourth globally behind Silicon Valley, New York, and Boston. While London still brings in more cash, the City of Light is growing faster in unicorns, AI talent, and enterprise value.
Also: fairly surprised this wasn’t technically already the case given what I know of the French Tech ecosystem, but I guess capital/language/culture used to make it easier for London up until now.

This week, 300 French organizations - including startups, public bodies, corporates and tech heavyweights dropped a “manifesto” for European tech independence.
The goal? Break free from the grip of U.S. and Chinese tech superpowers and reclaim control over French data, infrastructure, and destiny. (…)
Think: a European small business act, sovereign AI infrastructure, a unified cloud, and better startup-corporate matchmaking platforms.

Recently created 2 AI Agents to help me in my job — a great exercise for me, considering I’m in a customer-facing role and non-technical position.
- One agent helps me be better in my role/department.
- One agent is focused on the industry I’m working in
Basically, one focuses on our vertical, and one is more horizontal, by contrast. Doing so is a real timesaver, while not breaching any confidentiality or confidential information. Really powerful stuff that is already paying dividens and making me better at my job…

This goes against a lot of things I believe in — which is unsurprising since it’s about New York-based corporate culture…

Been stuck on something for work the past few days — something minor but couldn’t wrap my head around it.
Took some time to formulate it to my AI overlords, with the right context and suddenly things are cleared up. I love using it to help me gain clarity — feels kinda super power-ish

Perfect timing — I guess they were waiting for the AI Summit but French startup Mistral behind the French/European AI (Mistral) just updated and upgraded their platform. Much faster and more powerful. Gonna give it a try for work and play 😊

Too many business school graduates and not enough liberal arts alumni.

Have to use a Lenovo business PC running Microsoft and let me tell you what piece of nightmarish hell the software AND hardware are! How do people live, let alone work this way?!
