Small, curated networking workshop at STATION F's Bodyboard Room for early-stage to scaling founders, project leaders and ecosystem partners. Brief FlexUp intro, then a series of short pitches from startups and ecosystem players, followed by open networking. Capacity is deliberately capped to keep conversations concrete - opt-in contact sharing at the end. Useful if you find big-stage formats noisy.
