Why Software Club?
I feel very fortunate to wake up everyday knowing that I'm working on a topic that I'm truly passionate about: rational long-term focused investing in software & technology. I feel lucky to collaborate with an outstanding bunch of people (both within the team & our members). And above all, the entrepreneurial dimension of building a company with a very high potential is exhilarating. I've found my match!
What were you doing before Software Club?
I've had two stages in my professional career so far. I first started in strategy consulting working with BCG after university. I cherish that experience, which I see now as a great preparation to real business life. For the past 5 years now, I've started my second life as an entrepreneur. I've been entirely focused on Software & Tech investing for over 4 years now, and love it more and more every day.
Why Software Club?
I decided to join Software Club mainly for two reasons: first, I am very interested in investment and I wanted to be in a "next-gen" topic, which is software and technology. Second, I wanted to join a start-up where I could make a direct impact on the company and work on different topics in addition to investment research (HR, Finance, Commercial) that will help scale the company.
What were you doing before Software Club?
After graduating from HEC with a degree in Financial Management, I had opportunities to work for three different large organizations where I had a specific focus on financial services and then later, on digital transformation and innovation projects.
Why Software Club?
I chose to work at Software Club because I am convinced that Software is going to eat the world, and I felt like Software Club would provide me with the best path to understand how this will be happening in the near future.
What were you doing before you joined Software Club?
Before joining Software Club, I was finishing my studies in Economics, Data Analytics and Finance at École Polytechnique, and Software Club appeared liked the best opportunity for me to put those learnings in practice.
Why Software Club?
I came to Software Club both for the team and for the sector. I loved the idea of working on the ground floor of a start-up where every day you’re wearing multiple hats to keep the ball moving – beyond all of our day jobs, every team member plays an active role in defining the culture and future of the company. From there, Software Club’s research allows a unique birds-eye view into one of the world’s most dynamic and innovative sectors.
What were you doing before Software Club?
I was a consultant for four years at McKinsey, which was an amazing school to tackle big strategic problems across different sectors, business functions, and geographies. I love the fact that at Software Club I get to continue tackling big questions, while now getting to go deep into software to develop a real expertise in a startup where I see my impact each day.
Why Software Club?
After learning about Software Club from a friend who had worked at the company, it felt like the three worlds of my professional interests (strategy consulting, VC, and entrepreneurship) collided! I found the intellectual rigor and presentation requirements of the board, the working and thinking themes of VC, and the flexibility and empowerment of the start-up. What I learnt here will be invaluable to me whatever path I choose.
What did you like best about working at Software Club?
Firstly, I enjoyed the topics I was working on. It is quite challenging but super stimulating to dig into B2B industries that are rapidly gaining momentum and to find the nuggets in the space. I also enjoyed the work environment: super smart people with whom you iterate continuously, managers with very high quality standards but eager to take you to the next level, a nice open space (and lots of plants!) at the top floor in the middle of Paris.
Why Software Club?
I fancy myself as a rational person, but I really think it was fate that brought me to Software Club! My background is in content management and digital marketing but I’ve always found the world of software and tech to be very fascinating. I thought this was a wonderful opportunity to have a deep look into how new technologies are evolving and what that means for the future, and in parallel, also build expertise in my own field.
What do you like best about working at Software Club?
Never in my wildest dreams did I imagine that one day, I’d be working in a space that’s right in the middle of one of the most beautiful cities in the world with a view of the Eiffel Tower! But that only comes second to the excitement of doing new things and learning from it all as we go.
Why Software Club?
I joined SWC in the very early days to contribute to structuring the company on the admin and operations side. I love building projects from the ground-up, and so this is why I chose to work at Software Club.
What do you like best about working at Software Club?
I love the people, the diversity of cultures and backgrounds, the dynamic and caring energy among everyone. No internal politics, no gossip, just a lot of respect and teamwork!
Why Software Club

I am passionate about the software space, and keen to explore the different companies and sectors from a strategic and financial perspective, while deep diving into every aspect of promising companies to assess their viability and sustainability. I am surrounded by brilliant people in an agile work environment that has a really unique value proposition. I am sure that this opportunity is one of a kind and will be a major milestone in my career.
What were you doing before you joined Software Club?
I was pursuing my master's degree in strategic management at HEC Paris. I have done an internship in the software space at Unifonic with a couple other internships in small startups in Lebanon. Prior to entering the management world, I completed my architectural degree and worked for a year and a half in architecture. I also have experience in freelance digital modeling and animation.
Why Software Club?
I chose to work at Software Club because it was everything I was looking for! As I'm finishing my studies, I knew that I wanted to get a first investment analysis experience in a team specialized in Tech/Software. I was also looking forward to working in a smaller team where I could make meaningful contributions in different areas.
What were you doing before joining Software Club?
I'm about to graduate with a master's degree in Finance. So before Software Club, I was completing a master's thesis (about Momentum trading, a very interesting topic :)), and I interned at another company in Belgium where I developed the model for their financial database in order to facilitate and automatize their financial reports. Even before that, I studied Finance and Economics for a year in the Czech Republic.
Why Software Club?
I enjoy working in fast growing startups where there are new challenges everyday—Software Club falls exactly into this category. Here, I have the opportunity to work with a team of very talented people. I also enjoy the wide variety of interesting and exciting projects, it is challenging but most importantly, rewarding.

If you're looking for a company that is challenging and nurturing all in one, then you're at the right place!
What were you doing before Software Club?
I am based in the Philippines and working remotely for Software Club. Prior to joining SWC, I was working for various international clients helping them with Leads' Sourcing, Sales and Admin. As an independent consultant, I decided to focus on SWC as I've felt most valued and appreciated here.
Why Software Club?
First of all, I was attracted to SWC because I find investment exciting. I felt that joining the team as an analyst would help me become a better investor by working alongside and learning from sharp members with high standards and a lot of experience. The vast software space also resonated with my engineering background, and thus, it looked like the internship would suit both my interests and my desire to learn.
What did you like best about working at Software Club?
I definitely loved the overall atmosphere at the office (and the snacks!). The team is very cohesive and friendly, and working alongside other analysts with the same interests was stimulating. Managers were also amazing: they trusted me with a lot of responsibilities, were very available/open and truly valued each team members’ viewpoint.
Why Software Club?
I came across Software Club through a previous colleague of mine, who told me about what a great experience it is working at the company. Since joining, I’ve been amazed by the learning opportunities. I also want to be part of the new generation of technology and I believe I can do that by being part of a world-class research and investment company!
What do you like best about working at Software Club?
After joining the company, I fell in love with the team's competency, especially the managers. It is a company that offers you a diverse professional experience and professional growth. Not only am I working, but I'm also learning and growing with them.
Why Software Club?
I was at a certain phase where I needed change and was seeking avenues where I can provide valuable contribution. With the help of a friend working in SWC, I pursued my application and I am beyond blessed to be part of this team. Our leaders are not only highly intellectual but are also visionaries. In SWC, they acknowledge your potential and provide not only limitless learning but also vast opportunities for growth and career advancement. I couldn't be happier to be part of a company that builds inclusivity and continuously cultivates innovation!
What were you doing before joining Software Club?
I am based in the Philippines and I was providing services for international clients primarily on Recruitment, Training, Leads Sourcing, Sales, Admin and Management support. I was also managing a few offices here in the Philippines. Software Club fueled my passion for constant and never-ending self-improvement.
Why Software Club?
When I started to follow the first steps of Software Club, I quickly understood that a great adventure was beginning. A concept that promotes intelligence and exchange, with a top-level international team and a model to be co-built with the Members of the Club, I didn’t need to think about it very long! Every morning I come to work with the conviction of contributing to the success of Software Club. I have never had so much impact in a job and I am proud to have contributed to the successes already accomplished by the company in such a short time. But above all, I am so excited to help write the rest of the story!
What were you doing before joining Software Club?
I have worked for 20 years in different French banking groups in the fields of asset and wealth management. I have always been passionate in my work and particularly enjoy its relational aspect which is based on communication, in search of excellent advice and service. It is only natural that I’ve embraced this opportunity that allows me to flourish with this same passion but in another context.
