Created in 2017 in the new hub of emerging innovations between Europe and Africa – Aix-Marseille – EMERGING Valley is the international summit that attracts a range of stakeholders to Provence including investors, African start-ups and emerging digital ecosystems that want to increase their international appeal, expand their business relationships and accelerate their impact on a global scale.

As a real gateway between African and European tech, Emerging Valley is a unique opportunity to:
– Discover new innovative territories emerging in the south
