Once the latter have been chosen by a jury of experts from Meta and L’Oréal, they will benefit from all the resources allocated by the largest startup incubator in the world, namely Station F in Paris, in the 13th arrondissement. Prime location for innovative technologies, Station F has also been chosen by Binance to host its premises in France.
During this announcement last April, Changpeng Zhao, CEO of Binancehad declared in particular that France occupied a unique position “to be the leader of this industry in Europe “. A vision that also seems to be shared by Meta and L’Oréal.
More specifically, these startups will benefit from a support from Meta AI researchers and mentorship from L’Oréal. In addition, Station F is in itself a place of exchange and interaction with the many other startups present on site, an additional opportunity for the companies supported to develop their network and bring additional added value to their project.
Laurent Sollythe vice-president of Southern Europe of Meta, underlined the interest of this project which puts the tricolor flag in the spotlight:
” We are proud to partner with L’Oréal Groupe through this ambitious project which aims to support our ecosystem of French startups, which has a key role in building a collective, creative and inclusive metaverse.. »
