Agrilife Studio is the first startup studio dedicated to addressing the environmental and societal challenges of tomorrow’s agriculture by co-creating impact-driven startups.
Created as part of the France 2030 with an initial funding of 25M €, Agrilife Studio benefits from the support of major players such as Bpifrance, le Fonds Révolution Environnementale et Solidaire du Crédit Mutuel, et Crédit Mutuel Arkéa. Our mission: to develop and support innovative, sustainable agritech solutions.
Agrilife Studio aims to :
With Agrilife Studio, we create concrete solutions to transform agriculture and meet ecological, food, and economic challenges in a sustainable and innovative way.
We bring together a diversified team of :
Food Sovereignty and Security
- Maintain a productive agriculture system that meets the quantitative needs of growing populations. - Manage energy and input costs to improve farmers' yields and profitability. - Regain production autonomy by relearning how to produce locally.
Sustainable Agricultural Transition
- Shift towards agriculture that positively contributes to climate and biodiversity. - Promote farming practices that reduce risks from farmers to consumers.
Healthy, sustainable food
- Reintroduce the concept of health in foodtech while addressing farmers' yield and cost challenges. - Identify new technologies that enhance food products for better health benefits.
Circular economy
Many industries are turning to bio-based materials (luxury, cosmetics, construction): - Agrilife aims to support bio-based projects, provided they do not conflict with other key priorities of the Studio.

We need to respond to the urgent challenges of climate, demographics and biodiversity, but also to the shared desire of consumers, businesses, industrialists and local authorities to consume and produce cleanly, sustainably and locally.

What we need to do now is create a high-performance ecosystem, accelerate the identification of innovations that meet market needs, and create French startups with an international dimension.

Having impact is highly compatible with creating a profitable and industrializable economic model. C'est là que l'innovation rentre en jeu pour créer encore plus de valeur durable.

As an agronomist by training, my career has been shaped by a focus on food, digital technology, and innovation.
After several years in agri-food R&D, my passion for innovation and business led me to marketing roles, both in France and internationally. I then worked with the leaders of major French retailers, supporting their digital transformation at Google.
Driven by a desire to contribute to the food transition, I became a mentor, coach, and business angel for impact-driven startups. Supporting change, fostering innovation, and valuing people have always been my core motivations.
Today, as an Operating Partner at AgriLife, I bring my strategic and operational expertise with a focus on the food and bio-based sectors.
A graduate engineer in biotechnology, I completed my training with a specialized master's degree in Innovation Management in agro-activities and bio-industries at AgroParisTech and Neoma Business School. After an experience in a deeptech start-up specializing in precision fermentation, I joined Agrilife Studio as an apprentice in Sourcing and Innovation.
My role is to be the privileged contact for research laboratories, with the mission of meeting researchers and identifying innovations aligned with the challenges of Agrilife Studio.
