I am in Paris this week.
I was invited to participate in an event organized by the French government to foster an increased awareness of the tech startup scene in France. I must say I am extremely impressed. I haven’t made a direct investment here but I hope to change that in the future.
Work aside, I absolutely adore France and Paris in particular. I love the atmosphere, the lights, the food, the culture, the people and the spirit. It’s so beautiful. Unfortunately it also happens to be my first Paris visit without Lauren which is a bummer. I wish she could have made the trip.
But I did catch up with my friend Fred yesterday. I saw his check in on Swarm and a few DM’s later we met in the 8th Arrondissement and spent the afternoon walking around the city. So much fun.
Tomorrow morning I am scheduled to meet a number of local entrepreneurs and then I have the afternoon and evening to myself.
I have a few rolls of film calling my name :)
