VIVATECH – June 17-20, 2026

VivaTech accelerates innovation by connecting startups, tech leaders, major companies, and investors responding to our world’s biggest challenges. Each year, VivaTech creates Europe’s biggest startup and tech event. In 2026 VivaTech saw the emergence of a new player: “Abraham in Tech,” the technological innovation version of the Abraham accords. A brilliant concept bringing together 15 Israeli startups led by Yossi Dan with the sponsorship of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry Israel-France (CCIIF), 11 Moroccan startups and 4 startups from the Emirates. Led by Elnet and its boss Arié Bensemhoun,the Abraham in Tech stand was honored with the visit of Maurice Levy, inventor,  founder and president of VivaTech, that of Joshua Zarka, Israel’s ambassador to France, and that of Chemi Peres, co-founder and co-owner of Pitango, who came to honor the memory of late Shimon Peres, who was president of the State of Israel and above all a promoter of technological innovation as a driver of peace in the Middle East, by unveiling a plaque in his name. Among those present were Dror Bin, Israel’s Director of Innovation, Michal Michaeli, Director of International Development at Tel-Aviv Global, Julien Roitman, CCIIF President, and many others. It would be hard to account for all the meetings, exchanges, and conferences that made these two days such a strong and very promising event. Seeing all this, we can be sure that soon everyone will understand what InnovaZion means…
