The news
They took action
They participated in it
We were welcomed at h7 after our office burned down. That was 3 years ago. What stood out for us was the team's ability to understand, prioritize and take concrete action on every strategic or operational issue that marks out the entrepreneurial journey.

H7 is all about consideration and kindness. In other words, a state of mind perfectly embodied and animated by a team at the service of its startup community on a daily basis. We can only recommend it!
Jérémie Veg
Sopht
As soon as we arrived, we were assigned a start-up manager to help us understand our issues and activate the levers we needed to address them effectively. With a wide range of experts, content and events at our disposal, we feel truly supported in all areas of the company. Last but not least, the community and living space is a real plus for emulation between teams!

H7 in Lyon: the perfect location for our team! Responsive staff, exciting events, stimulating community. Everything you need to succeed!

Our company tripled in size in just 2 years at H7. When we arrived, we already had the product and the market, but we were looking to strengthen the brand and accelerate growth. The ecosystem and our super start-up manager helped us build our strategy and deploy it, particularly in the marketing and communication areas, where H7 brings strong added value. H7 is a great gas pedal!

At H7, we work with inspiring and ambitious entrepreneurs. We work in emulation with startups of different maturity. Only H7 offers such an ecosystem in Lyon, enabling us to go faster and further in our mission.

In addition to having magnificent premises that my teams don't want to leave ;-), being at H7 has given us everything that an excellent entrepreneurial ecosystem can give you. Exchanging with other entrepreneurs on an almost daily basis, sharing your questions, your learnings or your state of mind; having access to conferences almost every day, given by CEOs/CMOs/CTOs/... from France's finest start-ups. If we had to do it again, we'd do it 100 times.

I came for offices, but I was way off the mark. I didn't realize that H7 was going to go into 4 for us, which is the first time I've seen that. Quality, not generic. I almost feel like I've got an extra partner who's thinking about the company's development. PS: the icing on the cake is that, in human terms, they're top-notch. Cheers.

When reality exceeds expectations... At first, you come for support and advice, but very quickly you find business, new partners, inspiring people, and much more than you could have imagined! The power of people in the service of digital!

H7 is a special place, the HQ of entrepreneurs, our fortress of success. The team fosters an atmosphere of collaboration and mutual support, and we like to get together with our community to discuss our victories, our challenges and our failures too! Workshops, training courses, events, want to learn something? It's a place of knowledge, where we can draw inspiration from success stories, learn and be coached by experienced entrepreneurs from time to time.

At Hello Charly, we were lucky enough to be among the very first start-ups to be supported by the H7, and to grow right along with it! From 3 at the outset, we've now grown to 23 in this unique place, where we can push back the walls and grow our ambitions. The support we receive from the experts, and in particular our focus on Mousketon and Invox, enable us to take giant steps forward on strategic issues.

Paul and I, freshly associated at the time, settled in H7 when we launched our business. We've said it more than once: Behind the Skills wouldn't be where it is without the dynamism of this ecosystem. We're moving on after 3 years, but we intend to stay fully invested in this wonderful community!
