In October, Acme celebrates its 3rd anniversary!
At Acme, we also celebrate our anniversaries: we refuse to be the worst shod shoemakers. 3 years seems like a lot and a little at the same time, don't you think? In any case, this anniversary resonates more strongly than the others.
On the occasion of the 3rd anniversary, our founder and CEO Aurore Abecassis wanted to share her feelings. Entrepreneurship is not a job, it's a reason for being. A vocation. Where you decide to commit body and soul to the adventure of a lifetime. And we think that deserves a pause to understand what happened.
And a lot has happened, some good, some not so good. These famous entrepreneur's roller coasters where you feel discouraged more than once, but this instinct, this intuition perpetuates the desire to fight, to surpass oneself and to go further. And being a woman, Solo Founder, without having raised funds: the challenge is all the more complex.
But how do you know if this adventure is the right one? Sometimes, all it takes is a click, a revelation that creates a general awareness. For Aurore, this trigger was radical: she left the security of an ambitious and promising position as a consultant at Bain & Compagnie to discover what truly resonated with her: the design and creation of extraordinary events where people are at the heart of the experience, with a seamless 360 service to meet the challenges of tomorrow.
And instinctively, you wonder if she is happy, if the mental load of creating a company in its own right is not too high a price to pay, if she is finally more in tune with her conception of life. Her answer is yes and more than ever because she is finally fully aligned with her identity, her character and her values. Freedom is the dearest to my eyes and seizing entrepreneurship has allowed me to access a level never before equaled.
Everything lies in three questions: What? Why? How? If one of the answers does not correspond to your expectations or desires, you will know that you are not in the right place. Having trouble envisioning it? Aurore has done the exercise for you.
What? Founder & CEO of the company she has built brick by brick every day for the past three years. Each week is different from the last, Acme is terribly alive: constantly evolving, Aurore is living the adventure of her life that makes her vibrate every morning and gives her the desire to get up.
Why? To achieve self-fulfillment, to satisfy freedom, to contribute, to be a value add - you know, that differentiating element that allows you to achieve the best, the most, the excellence that was previously inaccessible.
How? Thanks to this visceral desire, the sacred fire of her revealing awareness that made her radically change her life to embark on the craziest ambition that could exist and thanks to the accomplishment and this indescribable feeling of freedom. Aurore is now surrounded by a team of brains in turmoil with whom she works hand in hand to go further, this famous Acmé Family. And above all, by the experiences and emotions she creates daily that make people vibrate.
I- A word from Aurore, our founder and CEO
I am writing this note to confide in you what is on my heart because yes, I built Acmé and I am still building it with all my heart.
Acme celebrated its 3rd anniversary, a milestone event for a start-up. They say love lasts 3 years, and passing this milestone can be perilous: 94% of start-ups do not pass this date, so dreaded by entrepreneurs.
Almost exactly 3 years ago, I took the (crazy? Maybe…) gamble of using my experience and expertise in Consulting and Strategy to design exceptional experiences. Despite the pandemic, Acme managed to stand out. Indeed, we revolutionized the field of event management by creating the first digital and then phygital events. But I didn't stop there.
Acme subsequently established itself on the French event scene: a few months later, my Acme became THE benchmark brand, creating extraordinary B2B experiences.
I wanted to announce to you (loudly and clearly, yes!) today that I am taking on this challenge of a lifetime, accompanied by my team. We are not an agency; we are 3.0 consultants who put exceptional event management at the service of strategy to meet today's biggest commercial, marketing and corporate challenges.
These three years have only reinforced my deep conviction. Now the fears and doubts are gone. Moreover, the number 3 symbolizes wisdom, strength and beauty: Acme is right in front of us.
Thank you for your trust and loyalty.
We still have a long and beautiful journey ahead of us together: I can't wait.
II- About Acme
At Acme, we are not an event agency, we are a team of professionals dedicated to your needs. We are not organizers, we are consultants: each desire to create an event reflects an underlying problem to which we respond with the solution, the realization and the results.
As a creator of tailor-made experiences for haute couture needs, Acme is your best ally because our teams commit themselves body and soul to your organization, because with us, nothing is impossible.
There are numerous examples of immersive experiences such as product launches, executive meetings, seminars, and team building activities. Feel free to browse our previous achievements. We design turnkey solutions so you don't have to worry about a thing: whether it's the design of your project (atypical marketing event, client seminar, immersive experience, themed evening, team building for team cohesion, etc.), your problem (uniting teams, signing prospects, galvanizing consumers) or the concrete organization of your event (budget, ideal location, service providers, experiences, aperitif, caterer or cocktail reception, etc.).
Do you have a project in mind? Share it with us, we love to listen.
