At VivaTech 2025, Ben sits down with Ilias Benjelloun - Canadian entrepreneur, corporate innovation leader, and ecosystem builder - to unpack his journey, lessons from bridging startups and corporates, and his new mission: unlocking the potential of the African diaspora in innovation. They discuss the state of global startup ecosystems, corporate venture strategies, and how inclusion can be reframed as a business opportunity rather than a charitable gesture.
