Congratulations to Partech Seed Fund Team members Alison Imbert and Finn Weise who have been promoted!

Alison joined Partech in the summer of 2018 and since then she has done nothing but impress.

The promotions are creating excitement amongst the team as Romain Lavault, General Partner, comments: 

“Alison embodies one of the defining characteristics that we are also looking in founders: passion. She is dedicated to the founders from her portfolio, and always available to support them. Partech is proud to have seen her quickly establish herself a reference partner to the founders in the French ecosystem. Her natural energy and tenacity are beneficial not only to the founders but to all of us working with her on a daily basis.”
