To check if this image is true, we decided to study the data ourselves. We gathered facts, figures, opinions, and preoccupations among all STATION F residents that were here during our first year of existence (We are 1 year old! Yay!)

Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.
Gopinath Rebala
Gopinath Rebala is the CTO of OpsMx, where he has overall responsibility for the machine learning and data processing architectures for Secure Software Delivery. Gopi also has a strong connection with our customers, leading design and architecture for strategic implementations. Gopi is a frequent speaker and well-known leader in continuous delivery and integrating security into software delivery.

3. Ok let’s be serious for a second. Here is how the present report was built:
STATION F conducted several data-gathering procedures in order to produce this report:
- A survey on startup applications and startup funding was conducted among Startup Program managers.
Out of our 31 startups programs, 23 responded to the survey. This survey consisted in 11 questions.
- A survey on STATION F uses and life habits was conducted among STATION F residents and alumni. 600
people responded the survey.
- Data was collected on STATION F’s intranet called HAL, particularly on residents’ personal profiles and
startup profiles. It is not mandatory for residents to fill out their profile. 1,111 provided detailed information.
327 startups profiles were completed.
- Data was collected by the Founders Program’s management team throughout the application processes
using our applications tool Younoodle.
The data source for each graph will be indicated throughout this report.
And now, here’s what’s happened at STATION F!
5. #1
June 29th, 2017: STATION F opened its doors to 1,000 startups,
making it the biggest startup campus in the world
STATION F opened its doors less than 3 years after the
beginning of construction, in the presence of Paris Mayor
Anne Hidalgo and the newly elected President of the
Republic Emmanuel Macron.
With 34,000 sq meters and 1,000 startups on site,
STATION F is the biggest startup campus in the world. On
campus, selected entrepreneurs can find everything they
need:
startups programs, public services thanks to French Tech
Central, a makerspace run by TechShop Ateliers Leroy
merlin, a community of 40 VCs, several tech companies like
AWS and Zendesk, and a ton of events.

The goal of STATION F is to provide an all-inclusive offer to all
kinds of entrepreneurs.
In addition to its core program run by STATION F staff, the

with unexpected happenings.

58. « Entrepreneurs are no cliché.
When people imagine an entrepreneur they generally picture a 20-something year old
male in a hoodie, perhaps a college drop out coding away night and day.
But if there is something we learned in building this report it’s that our entrepreneurs
come in all shapes and sizes. At Station F, a majority of our entrepreneurs are 30-year
olds, many are female and come from around the world. They work long hours and
weekends, sure, but many of them have families. Many of them don’t currently pay
themselves. When asked what issues they want the most help with, they say funding
and recruiting - not administrative issues or taxes, as one might have thought.
We asked our entrepreneurs tons of questions to find out what mattered to them the
most. The number one resource? The community. Entrepreneurs need to leverage the
ecosystem (other entrepreneurs, investors, mentors, and more) to scale up.
So, what’s coming next? Obviously, we will continue having diversity at our core and
work to get more entrepreneurs with diverse profiles - in particular more women
entrepreneurs, international founders and people coming from underprivileged
backgrounds. This will help us build STATION F’s future, from our co-living space to
upcoming surprise projects!
So that’s one year down, many more to go :)
