“Julien’s interview was as much of a pleasure for me as it was for our MBA crowd. It was supposed to run for 1h and lasted almost 2 as everybody found this an amazing story and loved engaging with him on topics as varied as starting a business or his views about corporate innovations, mental health issues or the startup world in general. I’d invite him again anytime.
