Frédéric Humbert
Partner, Innovacom

Biography

This telecom engineer, an admirer of Thomas Edison (with all due respect to all Nikola Tesla’s fans), is a Venture Capital “serial” optimist. His vocation had him stumble into the profession during his final year internship, he believes in inventors that are also builders, those that see themselves more as marathoners than sprinters.

Frédéric says his job is to look forward, not alone, but with and for others. When it’s no longer about dreaming but about making, about creating value, we see who is staring back at us; we understand the importance of the human factor.

As a venture capitalist, undoubtedly my greatest pleasure comes from meeting men and women with diverse talents and from a variety of backgrounds.
