Pitch and Rise

✨ The Pitch and Rise team wishes you a holiday season as brilliant as a start-up after its first million-dollar round! ✨ This time of year is all about: 🍷 Hot chocolate (or mulled wine, no judgment) 🎁 Thoughtful gifts (not another “World’s Best Employee” mug, we promise) ⏰ And, most importantly, taking a REAL break before diving into an epic 2025. In 2024, you crushed it. You spotted game-changers, chased trends, and trusted us to change the way you watch the start-up ecosystem. For that, we say a massive THANK YOU. 🙌 Now, relax, no notifications from us while you’re sipping on your holiday drink, scout’s honor (or not, you know us). Let’s hit 2025 already ahead. Happy holidays and an unforgettable end to the year, The Pitch and Rise Team 🍸

The Future40 list is out... and congratulations to the selected start-ups! You’ve made it to the cool kids' table at Station F. 🍾 But let’s take a step back: this list is a snapshot. A fantastic moment, no doubt, but the real magic happens after the spotlight fades. The true challenge is figuring out which of these rising stars will go all the way and become the next unicorn 🦄. And that’s not about picking them from a list—it’s about watching their journey unfold, understanding their growth, and knowing when to get involved. Here’s the thing: you don’t have to wait a whole year to do that. ➡️ For innovation leaders: Sure, mappings are amazing, but what if you could stay ahead of the curve all year long? Pitch and Rise helps you track the evolution of start-ups, so you can spot the next big one before it even hits the list. So thank you to all the Future40 start-ups for inspiring us! But we’re already thinking ahead: who’s going to be on next year’s list? With Pitch and Rise, you don’t have to wait to find out. PS: Roxanne Varza, Xavier Niel, we’d love to hear who you think is going to make the next leap. We’ll be here with our radar on. 😏 #Future40 #StationF #Innovation #Startups #PitchAndRise

We all trust our intuition when it comes to start-ups, but data-driven analysis often tells a different story. 📊 With Pitch and Rise, you start with your gut feeling, but as you dig into our well-structured criteria, you’ll discover how objective analysis can challenge and refine your initial intuition. This process helps you understand your own biases and improve your decision-making skills. It’s a journey from instinct to informed action. #PitchandRise #Startups #OpenInnovation #CollectiveIntelligence #Monitoring
