Financial: average investment of €400K
Structuring: our teams are mobilized to help you with the legal creation of your structure, the implementation of your business plan, the reflection on your business model, the marketing of your product, etc.
This human accompaniment, specific to each project and start-up, can be adapted to your needs.
