From yesterdays announcement! We are excited to team up with Terminal11 and @HECParisEnt to bring Omani startups to @joinstationf 🇫🇷🇴🇲

When @ycombinator comes to @joinstationf 🔥

As engineering, product, design, DS, etc. melt into a new kind of role, I was reflecting on what roles might look like in the future. For example, when I look at the Claude Code team I see what I think is five archetypes: 1. Prototyper: comes up with brand new ideas; churns out many ideas, most of which don't ship 2. Builder: quickly turns a prototype/idea into production-grade product/infra 3. Sweeper: cleans up the UI, simplifies the code and system, unships, optimizes performance 4. Grower: takes a product that has been built and iterates on it to improve Product-Market Fit 5. Maintainer: owns a mature system to make it secure, reliable, fast, and efficient as it scales Many people span across 2 roles, and sometimes 3 roles. I also notice that these roles are not really tied to job function -- eg. across Anthropic, some designers match category 1, some 2, some 3; same for engineers, PM, DS. A healthy team needs a mix of these, depending on the product: - A product that is new and pre-PMF needs people that are strong at 1 2 3 - A product that is growing and has found PMF needs 2 3 4 and some 5 - A product that has strong PMF needs 3 4 5 and some 2 Maybe product roles of the future will look more like this, and less like the domain-specific roles of today?

€480M raised by @avec_alan. Definitely worth the arm cramp.

Some cool stuff you didn’t know!

Happy birthday @joinstationf

We covered the entrance of @joinstationf with a whole bunch of random fun facts. Bet you didn’t know some of these

😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱 has it been 9 years already? A lot has changed! Full details here stationf.co/news/9-years

Spotted at @VivaTech 👀 Turns out it's impossible to walk more than 10 meters without running into a STATION F startup. Honestly one of our favorite things about VivaTech ❤️

Maybe one of my favorite talks was this one with @alexisohanian @vivatech

Taking the whole @joinstationf team to Barcelona 🇪🇸 who do we absolutely need to meet?

What do you call a company that does €1bn ARR? A good @deel 😅😭

No big Deel, just building a global AI engine from scratch 🌍 @Bouazizalex, Co-Founder & CEO @Deel, sits down with @roxannevarza, Director @StationF, at #VivaTech 2026 on going born global, building at speed & powering it all with AI 🚀

So true: “there is this thing called artificial intelligence, it’s almost as important as football.” 😅 on stage at @VivaTech #vivatech

People assume Silicon Valley is always the best place to build. @roxannevarza came to Paris and found the opposite. Instead of a saturated market, she found a place where there was still so much left to build. She’s since watched that ecosystem explode.
