Mercateam: a startup that promotes industrial know-how
Founded in 2020 by co-founders Adrien Laurentin and Kévin Rouvière, Mercateam was born out of a desire to digitalize and optimize skills management within industrial teams. Drawing on their experience in the sector, the two co-founders have developed a platform that enables companies to better manage their human resources, identify critical skills and maximize operational efficiency. Based in Paris, Mercateam quickly won over major industry players, becoming in just a few years a partner of choice for companies looking to boost their agility and competitiveness.

Mercateam: exceptional progress
Since its foundation, Mercateam has made remarkable progress. The startup succeeded in conquering the French market in less than four years, thanks to solid partnerships with major industrial companies such as Schneider Electric, Saint-Gobain and Airbus. Before diversifying into other industries, including aerospace and energy, Mercateam initially focused on the manufacturing sector. In 2022, the company began its international expansion by signing strategic partnerships with industry players in Europe and North America, thus taking an important step forward. Today, Mercateam is seeking to reinforce its leading position in the global market by developing a strategy focused on innovation and expansion in industrial skills management.
