In a context where French entrepreneurship is reaching record levels, GO Entrepreneurs is returning on April 15 and 16, 2026, at the Paris La Défense Arena with a clear promise: to bring together, equip, and inspire those who are entrepreneurial. Created in 1993 and renamed in 2021, the event has become a must-attend for business creators and leaders. This 33rd edition aims to capitalize on this momentum with a focus on performance.
For two days, more than 50,000 entrepreneurs are expected to seek concrete answers, expand their network, and accelerate their projects, in a format that combines conferences, meetings, and personalized support.
An event designed for performance This year, GO Entrepreneurs is structuring its entire edition around entrepreneurial performance. A deliberately broad concept that goes beyond just financial indicators to include issues of innovation, impact, endurance, and resilience.
“To dare audacity and innovation, seek sustainability and growth, commit to values and responsibilities, maintain a constant demand for quality, know how to face and overcome obstacles, disrupt and conquer a market, create value and opportunities… In today’s society, the entrepreneur performs at all levels. This entrepreneurial performance is not just about numbers. It includes not only the pursuit of independence, growth, and profitability but also notions of innovation, creativity, impact, agility, endurance, and resilience in the face of adversity. Entrepreneurship is a daily marathon, a constant quest for achievements, requiring multiple qualities, the best tools, and top-notch support. Between positive thinking, coaching, audacity, work ethic, resilience, taste for challenge, environmental awareness, AI, and other digital innovations, GO Entrepreneurs 2026 offers a perfect overview of the trends, tools, and reflexes to embrace in order to perform and achieve success,” explains William Jameux, Director of GO Entrepreneurs.
To embody this ambition, the program promises to be rich: 250 round tables and demonstrations, 30 thematic animations, and over 16,500 individual consultations are planned.
Teddy Riner as a sponsor and highlight For this edition, GO Entrepreneurs is surrounded by a sponsor who matches its theme: Teddy Riner. A symbol of discipline and resilience, the judoka will speak on April 15 to share his journey and vision of performance, especially through his activities as an entrepreneur, acquirer, and investor.
This speech is expected to be one of the highlights of the event, facing an anticipated large audience.
A concentration of the entrepreneurial ecosystem Beyond this emblematic figure, GO Entrepreneurs 2026 will bring together over 200 personalities from business, tech, media, and institutions. Among the first announced speakers are Jonathan Anguelov (Aircall), Frédéric Mazzella (BlaBlaCar), Justine Ryst (YouTube France), and Roxanne Varza (Station F).
With 300 partners, a wide range of experts, and free access, the event positions itself as a comprehensive platform for entrepreneurship: to find funding, refine strategy, discover new tools, and meet the right people.
Located at the Paris La Défense Arena, GO Entrepreneurs 2026 confirms its role as an essential crossroads for those who want to take action or take their development to the next level.
