Live from Athens: Station F's AI Incubator & Flooded Launch

The show opens live from Panathenia in Athens, then Melissa introduces Station F, the 50,000 m² Paris campus housing 1,000 early-stage companies. She details the new AI incubator built with 16 major AI players (Microsoft, Meta, OpenAI) that pushes founders toward $1M revenue in six months — 25% of the first batch is on track, and portfolio companies Ripple Tide and Outpick won global competitions. She also recounts the burst pipe that flooded the campus auditorium weeks before launch, delaying the opening by three months before a 2,500-person launch party with the president.
