The i7 Summit

Creating a community feeling

The Collaboration:

The prize for the most outlandish statement of the event went to Capgemini's Pierre Hessler, who after explaining that in order to conceive a company properly, entrepreneurs need to seek the help of a sexologist, went on to add that what is really needed to establish a company is a good psychologist 'because everybody loves innovation but hates change.' Good job Yasmo has a resident psychoanalyst then!

Yasmo enjoyed its biggest delegate uptake at the i7 summit-81% of registered delegates. The i7 people just got it. We were humbled by their embracing of our technology and their enthusiastic feedback. Here was a real accomplishment of the mission that lies at the heart of our company: satisfying people's need to belong to a community and to engage in the warmth of face-to-face interactions, without having to go through the awkward, sometimes insurmountable, initial introduction phase.

About the i7 summit:

From October the 13th to the 15th, 2010 Les Fontaines hosted the first edition of a most exciting technology and innovation event, the i7 summit.

During these three days, more than 100 entrepreneurs, innovators, intellectuals, investors and other high-level leaders, from the four corners of the world, gathered to work together to find the best answers to the challenges of the future. The very interactive format of the event aimed at stimulating the European innovation ecosystem to boost the emergence of enduring partnerships capable of generating truly ground-breaking solutions.

  • A not-to-be-missed annual gathering of entrepreneurs, new technology experts, VCs, and innovation executives at multinational corporations.
  • A rich experience for all participants, centered around exchanges and debates on topics such as solutions of the future, the latest innovation trends and the best practices in various strategic areas.
  • A showcase for methods and tools destined to encourage and facilitate innovation in companies of all sizes.
