    "H7 is much more than a place: it's a veritable lung for entrepreneurship in Lyon. There's a unique energy here, where camaraderie and mutual support rub shoulders with inspiring, high-level content. Every meeting, every event and every exchange brings tangible value, both on a human and a professional level. When it came time to open a Lyon office, it was a no-brainer to be there."
