Tech Events in Aix-en-Provence

Après une longue période sans pouvoir accueillir du public, nous sommes heureux de vous annoncer la reprise des permanences hebdomadaires du Fablab dans un nouveau lieu. L'atelier du LAB ouvrira grand sa porte pour permettre aux membres de se rencontrer, partager leurs connaissances, échanger et surtout de réaliser des projets que l'on espère tous plus créatifs les uns que les autres !

Le nombre de personnes simultanément présentes dans les locaux sera limité à 10 personnes. Les inscriptions sur meetup sont donc recommandées (les inscrits seront prioritaires).

C’est une bonne occasion pour les curieux de venir découvrir ce que l'on peut faire dans un espace de fabrication numérique collaboratif, ouvert et communautaire comme le LAB.

Startup World Cup returns to Aix-en-Provence for an even bigger edition. One pitch. One spot at the Global Finals in San Francisco.

🚀 Startup World Cup France 2026 | Aix-en-Provence Edition

After a successful first edition, the Startup World Cup is back in Aix-en-Provence, and bigger than ever.

10 selected startups will pitch live in front of an investor-led jury for a chance to represent France at the Grand Finale in San Francisco (Nov 4-6, 2026), competing for a $1,000,000 investment prize and 2 round-trip Paris–San Francisco flights provided by French Bee ✈️
