My first time as a VC scout for REMUS Capital was in March 2022 in Paris meeting founders. Researching the day before and on the metro around the city. Writing notes on questions to ask and studying the markets.
I absolutely loved it!
You can't beat a view of the Arc de Triomphe whilst having a founder chat.
The Paris entrepreneurial system is a fascinating phenomenon. In the mornings, due to the proximity to scientific universities, I would be talking the physics of Superconducting Quantum Interference Devices (SQUIDs) and in the afternoon I would talking tech and unit economics of no-code and psychedelics.
Do yourself a favour, go to Station F and experience it for yourself!
