It’s often referred to as the biggest startup event in Europe. VivaTech opens its doors this Wednesday in Paris with 150,000 people in attendance, as well as 10,000 startups. The event takes place as signs are emerging that the French tech sector might be recovering from a period of cost-cutting and high interest rates. We discuss this and the race to develop AI skills with the co-founder of VivaTech, Pierre Louette.
