About Factory Club created by Jean-François Sales and his associates:

"Every top-level athlete is a potential entrepreneur: they have the DNA, the ability and the mindset. Allthey need to do is find the right project and get involved," says Kélian Galletier, a player with Montpellier Hérault Rugby.

After nearly ending his career prematurely following three concussions, he took the time to think about it and is convinced: professional sportsmen and women must prepare their post-career careers from an early age, and take the entrepreneurial step by investing in innovative start-ups.

Accompanied by his team-mates, Yvan Reilhac, Gabriel Ngandebe and Vincent Giudicelli, he decided to revolutionize entrepreneurship and support top-level sportsmen and women in their career transition with the unique Factory Club solution.

This support system is based on 3 pillars: My Factory Club, a 100% digital platform dedicated to entrepreneurship; La Draft®, an annual matching event between sports investors and selected entrepreneurs; La Manufacture, a venue dedicated to entrepreneurship, with a pool of on-site and remote experts.

The event will be hosted by two speakers:

• Eric Hirschi : MHB / BLMA / Arago Sète speaker and France Bleu journalist
• Marion Detranchant Redwitz - Freelance journalist ex. L'Equipe - Bein Sports.
