Hey VentureTaler - It’s Alex!
Welcome back! Today we are diving into our 25th VentureTale. Today we are riding back to Paris to see how children’s studying habits have changed. If you only have 4 minutes and 39 seconds, don’t worry it’s enough!
Btw - follow me on LinkedIn for daily content on the European startup scene.
In today’s agenda..
This France startup is the baby of TikTok & Duolingo!
Are you still scheduling your calls manually.?

Picture this; it’s 2006: highlighters bleeding through encyclopedia pages, post-it notes creating a rainbow explosion on my desk, and the sweet sound of dial-up internet promising me Wikipedia access in just...3...more...minutes. Fast forward to today and kids are literally scrolling their way to straight A's.
I'm not even mad. I'm just confused. And maybe a little jealous.?🤔
Because while I was out here memorizing the Pythagorean theory from a textbook filled with notes, today's students are learning calculus from 30-second videos squeezed between dance challenges and cooking hacks. The education system didn't just evolve; it got a full makeover, complete with transitions and trending audio.
Let me tell you about this French startup that looked at traditional studying and said "Nah, we can make this modern."🎮
