How to reconcile entrepreneurship and commitment - A fascinating interview with Celine Lazorthes in Maddyness. This passionate and relentless entrepreneur founded Resilience in 2021, after creating and then selling Leetchi and Mangopay. Cathay Innovation has been working alongside Céline Lazorthes for three years now, and we can vouch for her commitment and entrepreneurship foolproof. We are proud to support Resilience since its creation, through key stages of its development, and most recently in May 2024 with a new $25M round of funding led by @Picus Capital and @Red River West. Céline Lazorthes dedicates her full attention to Resilience, a French healthtech company that provides remote monitoring and support solutions for oncology patients. Remote monitoring is a vital advancement in patient care and well-being, underscoring our strong belief in Resilience's potential for international expansion. Congratulations once again on all your achievements, Céline. We can’t wait to see what’s next! https://lnkd.in/eGhnXf5v CC: Denis Barrier, Jacky Abitbol
