The keynote by Swethal Kumar, Founder & CEO of Startupscale360 FZE, provided relevant insights into the structure of start-up ecosystems, their key players and how start-ups can leverage the ecosystem resources.

The keynote was followed by an interactive panel discussion with industry experts moderated by Mustapha Zaouini, CEO of Fliptin:

- Mitchan Adams, Co-Founder of Ozow & Investor and Venture builder
- Kaveer Beharee, Founder & CEO of Ubiquity AI
- Arnaud Blanchet, President of La French Tech South Africa

The topics discussed highlighted the importance of understanding the dynamics of exporting a start-up's business as a function of the ecosystem that accompanies it. The panellists talked about the importance of networking for entrepreneurs to find the right partners and to become fully integrated into the ecosystem.

This is where the work of la French Tech South Africa comes into play, and where events like the Bridge are enabling and intimate platforms that connect to the ecosystem and to the relevant stakeholders. 🤝
