4. "We are friends, partners and lovers of the creative world.
During school, when we were young, we dreamed about
building our own company and after finishing our school, we
decided to wait no longer and turn our dream into a reality.
We are fascinated about Mediterranean lifestyle: the sun,
the beaches, and the food. Our idea was to combine this
lifestyle with graphic design and offer to the public a
group of products that are steeped in our culture.
Although we come from two different professional areas, it
was our passion for digital and online world that brought us
together. It is for this very reason that we wanted to
combine our knowledge and take a step forward in order to
create our own digital marketing and design agency."
"After 13 years of a successful corporate life, I took a
sabbatical to travel and see as much of the world as I
could. A long cherished dream of a culinary career led me
to the gastronomic capital of the world – France; and thus
started my quest for the perfect pastry and bread. A dream
turned into reality after specialising in Pastry Arts from
L’Ecole Nationale Supérieure de la Pâtisserie (ENSP),
followed by an extensive work stint with the world pastry
champion 2009, Chef Jerome Langillier. Life has never
been the same since...
My idea of food is that it should be simple, yet unravel
itself with a melee of flavours and linger long after the
last bite; engulfing you with warmth every time you
reminisce about it.
Food, for me, is joie de vivre and that is what I like to
recreate in my kitchen and share with each one of you."

5. "The food supply has not yet adapted to the urban world and
we feel that there is a need for new consumption models to be
reinvented.
The digital age has paved the way for finding food that is fresh
and healthy.
The mission of Frichti is eating well, in every sense, to
rediscover the pleasure of cooking and to instill pride in
people for taking care of themselves."

"Les caves du louvre is not an exhibition, but an exploration of
wine, subtly directed by the talented interior designer Elodie
Tornare.
He has played with volumes, lights, materials like stone, wood,
cork, steel and even sounds, to create a universe both
coherent and diverse, timeless, intimate.
The immersion is absolute."

KËNSLA
FRANCE
"We are Elena and Ines. We're colleagues, co­founders, and sisters. While our
dream of starting a company together crystallized in our adulthood, our
fascination for it can be traced to our childhood when as little girls we’d pretend
to have our own store. When we grew up, old enough to bring that dream into
fruition, we hurled ourselves into it and that's how Kënsla came into being.
Our main objective was to work on something that we are truly passionate
about, something that will rouse us every morning and change our lives
forever. We then began looking for a creative outlet by means of which could
share our ideas about design, communication, and personal experiences.
That's how our blog was born.
Through blogging we have helped plenty of new entrepreneurs who were trying
to find their place in the business environment. We also help brands with their
marketing strategy and corporate identity. We do it by implementing external
management strategies, using communication tools and knowing our client
thoroughly. We are very proud of our achievements."
SNEAT
FRANCE
"My community of friends and I are keen about gastronomy.
However, we would often have heated discussions about
restaurants that are able to form immediate connections with those
who we are lucky to get a table and taste their food.
The disappointment of not finding a place was part of our
experiences too often.
Sneat (portmanteau for sneak and eat) was born from this
situation!"

7. "Le Plaisir is my humble dream. It started as a small bistro on a
street that was not ideally a restaurant friendly area. It was a
challenge and I was up for it. It was time to serve all that I had
learnt and understood about food. This was the real test.
I started off with a few local cooks who came with their own set of
ideas. However, as time went by, I could mold them to have the
same vision as I had.
The concept was simple ­ to serve food that looks good and
tasted good and was served with love and care. The response
we got was overwhelming and the kitchen started buzzing with
orders and people were queuing for a seat. It the love of our loyal
patrons and my zeal for cooking that encourages me and my team
to get better and better with each passing day."

MELLOPLOT
FRANCE
"The Paris area is full of musicians. Music schools are often too full to
accommodate new students. Yet I have always had the feeling that only a
gated community has the chance to hear them play.
I saw that the talent of promising musicians was going unnoticed because of
their shyness, their lack of confidence, or a global lack of communication.
Over time and research, I found out that even the musicians themselves
struggle to meet buddies to jam with. I decided to create MelloPlot, a music
mobile app that would make people conscious of their musical
environment. Now you can finally listen to the musicians around you!"

ZINGOHUB
INDIA
"Both of us (Haider­Aly­Reza and Sayantan Das) grew
up in Singapore and have known each other for 15
years.
ZingoHub was born in 2015 as we two envisioned a
world without borders made possible through an online
commerce platform built on innovation and ideas.
We are a platform exclusive to brands, creators &
innovators. We are here for any individual who has a
creative idea, plan or product and wish to showcase
their talent to rest of the world & this what makes us
different from the rest. "
LA P'TITE MANUFACTURE
FRANCE
"It all began during my (Lucie) first pregnancy. I had long
sought organic clothing and accessories that are Made in
France for my unborn baby but never found anything
satisfactory.
This became a reason for me to set out on a new
adventure which was eventually realized in the form of La
P'tite Manufacture, where bloomers, leggings, blouses,
etc, are not only made organic but are proudly made In
France, all in a world of sweetness, poetry, and
benevolence. I met Sophie virtually on the Facebook page
of an illustrator and hit it off really well.
We both have the same motivation and desire to create
beautiful things and are inspired by French expertise. I
can proudly say that Sophie has become my stalwart
companion in the adventure. Through La Ptite
Manufacture wish to promote Made In France to prove
that our beautiful country is full of talented designers
and enthusiasts."
