The Beginnings of Friends Concept
I love bringing together individuals from all walks of life, whether during my travels or at home. Despite being born and raised in Paris, I struggled to integrate socially and was struck by loneliness. Forming strong connections as an adult was challenging.
I always wanted a caring community where people could express themselves freely and grow together. That’s why, in 2017, I started the Soirées Concept—informal events aimed at bringing together people from different backgrounds. They were a big success, and your feedback motivated me to organize them regularly.
A few years later, I founded Friends Concept—a community that facilitates meaningful connections across differences. Through inclusive events, my goal is to help participants gain confidence, expand their social circles, and come together to positively impact the world.
I realized that to grow, we need to step outside our bubbles and open up to new cultures and perspectives. I spent hours designing concepts to break down these barriers. Come and try the games for yourself!
