Ignition Program, the sustainable human performance agency. Co-founded in 2013 by Caroline Pailloux and Lucas Servant, Ignition Program supports talents and companies in useful professional projects, through recruitment, training, and HR resource tools. Born out of a desire to build a world of work with a human face based on authenticity, learning and trust, Ignition Program helps each talent to freely develop their potential and fulfil themselves in their work, while integrating a collective meaning into their professional lives. For companies, Ignition Program offers the keys to HR transformation by enabling them to recruit talents who are looking for meaning and impact, who play as a team, and by training their teams for sustainable and serene growth. With nearly 90 employees, Ignition Program has already supported 10,000 talents since its creation, and 3,500 companies (such as Doctolib, the startup studio Efounders and Payfit). Convinced that other, more sustainable and humanist development models exist for start-ups, Caroline Pailloux founded Club Bootstrap in 2021, which questions the systematic use of fund-raising and advocates progressive and responsible growth. The Club now has over 70 members, including Alain Garnier of Jamespot, Gilles Satgé of Lucca, Fany Pechiodat of MyLittleParis and Thibault Renouf of Partoo.
