Three days. 180,000 builders. One student delegation.
Made possible by Yorkseed, START Paris and VivaTech.
Every student in the delegation gets the same three things — no tiers, no fine print.
A full 4-day pass to one of Europe's largest tech events. Yorkseed and START Paris cover it completely — you don't pay a cent.
High-signal networking across Paris — dinners, workshops, founder meetups, and cross-border events curated by the Yorkseed team.
Join the delegation and connect with ambitious student builders across Europe — during VivaTech and long after it ends.
Whether you're building, studying, or still figuring it out — the case for showing up.
The highest concentration of founders, investors, and operators in Europe. Density changes what's possible.
Not LinkedIn — real conversations, fast connections, in person at the stands and side events.
Internships, jobs, co-founders, project collabs — from being in the same room as people who build and hire.
Early-stage to scale-ups across AI, climate, health, and fintech. Not slides — live products and demos.
For a few days Paris becomes the innovation capital of Europe. The energy is unlike anything else on the calendar.
People from every corner of Europe and beyond. The relationships you start here compound for years.
Hear from operators building real companies. The stage lineup at VivaTech is consistently world-class.
Yorkseed curates smaller, higher-quality gatherings — dinners, rooftops, workshops across the city.
Most people never leave their city. You will have been in the room where it happened.
Not a lone attendee — a curated group of student builders who show up, explore, and connect together.
"The best founders didn't wait to be discovered.
They showed up where the future was being built."

A shareable digital card — your name, school, what you're building, how to reach you.
Cold messages that work for investors, founders, and operators. Tuned for VivaTech context.
Where to stay near Porte de Versailles — curated by price range and transit proximity.
Yorkseed-curated Paris Tech Week side events — dinners, rooftops, workshops, meetups.
Join your fellow delegates before the event. Coordinate, plan, arrive as a group.
A collaboration between Yorkseed's global venture network and START Paris' youth-led community.

A youth-led non-profit part of the global START network, connecting ambitious individuals to founders and investors across Europe. START Paris brings an annual student delegation to VivaTech and partners with organisations to make access possible for students.
