In our first episode in English I had the pleasure to talk to Laurent Hausmann, an entrepreneur based in Nantes, France. Laurent has a fascinating life story, from working as the Sales Director for Nordic countries for a decor & wallpaper company to starting a coworking café in Paris, selling it right before the pandemic hit in 2020, and finally starting a freelancing platform for office managers in France, which is now the largest of its kind.
We talk about what it means for him to be an entrepreneur, what his daily routine looks like, and how the freelancing market in France is evolving.
