10 years of Source - Launch of our retrospective site

Ten years ago, with Jules Bassoleil, we launched Source.paris. Today is an opportunity to celebrate with a mini-site that tells our story: our crazy beginnings, the challenges we faced, and the successes we achieved.

Honestly? Ten years leaves me indifferent.
I always believed in it, from the start. This milestone seems natural to me, even if the stats say that 50% of companies don't make it to five years. We made it double, and I bet we will be here in twenty years.

To exist in a market, it’s not just about following the norm. You have to offer an alternative, see opportunities where others see obstacles. For that, you have to be a damn optimist, imagine what doesn’t exist yet. It’s easier to be pessimistic, to say it won’t work. The longevity of a company is to move forward at all costs, even when the market is a chaos of high rates, tight budgets, and rampant inflation.

In the end, 1 year, 3 years, 5 years or 10 years, it doesn’t matter. What matters is that we keep believing in it, fighting alongside my teams to offer the best in design and tech. Every upheaval, every new technology is another opportunity to continue.

Thank you to those who steer the ship with me: Jules, our partners, the current team, and our former members. And a big thank you to those who believed in us from the beginning.
