What is the Innovative Event Challenge?
It's back for its 4th edition!
VivaTech presents two challenges to help us create a better event than before, considering current needs. This year, the goal is to re-enchant the physical experience through innovation and make a Tech for Good event through sustainable commitments.
The best startups will pitch their solution in front of the VivaTech team, PublicisLive team and VivaTech’s main partners in early 2022. The winner of each competition will be selected to imagine the best way to implement their solution at the next edition of VivaTech.
