Marie Ekeland

2050.do

Founder & CEO

Description

There are a thousand ways to introduce Marie Ekeland. But any effort to label her would deny her core identity as she is bridging worlds and cultures, constantly empowering innovators to achieve their visions. Marie’s approach is rooted in an extraordinary journey within French Tech. At 30, within the investment fund Elaia Partners, she first detected Criteo, which she advised and followed until 2016, 3 years after its IPO. In the same spirit, she co-founded France Digitale to give voice to a sector still in its early stages of development. She became the first woman in Europe to create a €150 million fund. In 2015, daphni was born with a value proposal different from the market. Her current portfolio is divided into London, New York, Montpellier, Paris, and San Francisco. It reflects her taste for diversity: education (Holberton School), health and nutrition (Lifen and Zoe), culture (Keakr), finance (Shine, sold to Société Générale in the summer of 2020), green mobility (Zoov), well-being at work (Swile). As head of the French Digital Council (2017), Marie realized the urgency of moving forward on fundamental issues such as biodiversity and diversity. She sketched out the first steps of a new adventure targeting the world’s major challenges.
