In order for a company to deeply transform itself, its leaders have to make complex decisions quickly in rapidly changing environments. A culture based on RONI (Risk of Non-Investment) needs to complement and in some cases replace the culture of ROI (Return on Investment).

With their minimalistic interface focusing on the dialogue between the person and the machine, they are now everywhere and play increasingly important roles in classic processes such as sales, assistance or gathering information.

An exclusive interview with Clara Gaymard and Gonzague de Blignières, co-founders of RAISE

100% of big corporations collaborate with young companies, whether as investors (through equity), as partners (through commercial relationships, incubators, accelerators, etc.) or as sponsors (through events, prizes, foundations, patronage, HR initiatives or mentoring)”.
