# [2021.06.29] Start-Ups and Innovations

Today I listened to a webinar about foundations and banks supporting
start-ups in France. For some reason, they directed invitations to
all my colleagues, even those who prove theorems and never write a
single line of code. What kind of start-up can they establish? Nobody
answered me, although it seemed I was the only person who tried
asking questions. The organisers told me I could write them an email
and wished everyone bon appétit. Well, really, who wants innovations
during their lunchtime?
