• Secured thousands of stations to establish Electra as a leader in the European market

• Opened several offices in France and Europe

• Raised over €1 billion in equity and debt financing from renowned investors and institutions

• Joined the French Tech Next 40 and won the European Scale-up of the Year 2024 award

• Assembled a team of over 240 talents… and this is just the beginning !
