💫 The excellent 3-day journey of ChangeNOW has come to an end, but the impact of the innovative solutions and connections made will be felt for a long time!   🌲 At our solution hub, we got the chance to showcase impactful startups supported by us, including Teserac, Inc., Willow, Les Alchimistes, and Lifeaz. From enhancing power reliability and transforming the built environment, to reducing food waste and improving public health, these solutions demonstrate the power of innovation in driving positive changes.   🙌 These startups, and many others like them, are supported by BNP Paribas Asset Management, Act For Impact by BNP Paribas, and Positive Impact & Inclusion Business Accelerator (PIIBA), which are dedicated to driving positive change through innovation and entrepreneurship.   🌍 Our workshops on "Feeding the city differently" and "Reimagining our cities" brought together experts and innovators, including Loubna Ksibi, Robert Gerlach, Loïc W., Sarah COLOMBIE, Damien Jourdan 🦋, Marcelo Joulia, Timothée Boitouzet, Germain Aunidas, Laroue-Pont Thierry, Raphaëlle Chaygneaud-Dupuy, Romain Chapron, to discuss pressing issues and explore new ideas. We delved into the intersection of food and sustainability and explored the future of urban planning and development.   🤝 We also had the opportunity to connect our supported startups, including FEVE (Fermes En ViE) 🦔, Shayp, and Leviathan Dynamics, with influential voices in the industry, content creators Vincent Walczak, Alessandro Cascavilla, PhD, Norbak Baali, Virginie HILSSONE-LEVY, Davide Marelli, and Carola Letizia Olati, shining a spotlight on the groundbreaking work of these innovative companies.   🥇 As we celebrated the impact of these innovative solutions, Anne Pointet announced the 2026 winners of “Impact 40/120”, recognizing companies focusing on health and vulnerability. We congratulate all the winners and are proud to support them alongside Mouvement Impact France and Les Echos.   Thanks to everyone who joined us on this journey! Let's keep working together to create a more sustainable and inclusive future.   #BNPPChangeNOW2026
