What if the most powerful leadership didn’t come only from the head… but from the heart?
Tech entrepreneur and business leader Nicolas d’Hueppe has experienced what many entrepreneurs strive for: growth, transformation, strategic pivots, an LBO and taking a company public.
As CEO of Cellfish and later Alchimie, he built and led companies in demanding environments, taking Alchimie to Euronext Growth in 2020.
Then, in 2021, an event changed his life, and the way he leads.
On September 17, 2026, Nicolas d’Hueppe will join EO Paris to share a powerful reflection on performance, fragility, energy and leadership through the heart.
A Learning Event for entrepreneurs who want to succeed — without losing themselves along the way.
