Scortex joined the Maison des Startups

We are also extremely proud to announce that back in February, 2020, Scortex was selected as one of the 50 startups chosen for the LVMH group business acceleration program that facilitates conversations between startups and various maisons to write the future of luxury together while inspiring new innovations and trends in luxury. This program is held within the largest incubator in the world : Station F.The objectives of the Maison des Startups: 

• Support entrepreneurs in accelerating their activities 

• Create synergies and networks with the 70 Maisons of the group

• Share LVMH’s excellence and savoir faire

The acceleration program is based on 3 pillars: learning through contact with experts from the Group’s Houses, business coaching by a dedicated team and qualified networking with the LVMH ecosystem and peer entrepreneurs.Being part of the program was a very interesting experience for Scortex team members who got the opportunity to meet LVMH managers and be introduced to different Maisons in the Group. Having an office in Station F along with the other program members, as well as LVMH team members allowed us to focus time and energy on developing our knowledge of the Group, its practices and values. Tailored mentoring, focused introductions to executives and presentation of the Group was all organized to give us opportunities to develop our relationships with the Maisons. Although, COVID-19 changed businesses and practices, the adaptation, agility, and availability of the La Maison des Startups’ team helped maintain a fruitful experience for us. 

Joining hands with LVMH – Scortex aims to have a profound impact on the way quality is managed, delivering smarter automation and valuable data insights for operation excellence.We are excited and looking forward to working with LVMH Maisons in order to help them meet their highest quality standards and get real time insights into their quality with our powerful deep learning solution.Testimony from LVMH Global Digital & Tech Partnerships DirectorThank you to the LVMH group and to the members of the jury for selecting Scortex for this magnificent adventure!
