EnterNext, the Euronext subsidiary dedicated to promoting and growing the market for SMEs[1],is organising its first EnterNext Pitch Tech Day on Friday, April 24. The event brings together entrepreneurs, investors and analysts to exchange views and gain fresh insights into innovative companies and their various activities.

Through practical exchanges between entrepreneurs and stockmarket professionals, the EnterNext Pitch Tech Day will give investors and analysts a better grasp of innovative companies’ business models. Seven companies from the world of connected things—six of them listed—have been invited to give the group a short pitch, describing their business. The morning will be introduced and moderated by Anne-Sophie Bordry, head of the Connected and Intelligent Things Think Tank in France. Speakers will focus on the challenges facing the connected technologies sector and its growth prospects, new business models, value-creating innovation, and success indicators for the industry.

- Laurent Levasseur, Chairman, Management Board, Bluelinea
- Alain Molinié, PDG, AWOX

There will also be a showroom with products made by these companies on display.
Eric Forest, Chairman and CEO of EnterNext, noted:“Last November we announced a series of measures to raise the visibility of our listed tech companies. Pitch Tech Days are one example. The aim is to give analysts and investors a better understanding of the often disruptive business models used by tech companies, and familiarize them with these businesses. The format breaks new ground: leaders focus on the technology side of the business, leaving aside the financial ratios that are generally presented to financial experts. We are convinced that our approach, based on building close ties between companies, investors and analysts, will resonate with our eco-system.”
