Xavier Herve

Guided by my passion for advancing emerging technology, my career is rooted in strategic partnerships and community building. I am proud of the incubator that I founded, District 3, and the 1000+ tech startups that have come through our doors in now 10 years.

I am committed to growing the bioeconomy in Quebec–which at this very second, is revolutionizing the world. Equivalent to what happened in IT 50 years ago, the same is occurring in biological engineering–it’s going to change everything. The next bioeconomy ventures are led by scientific entrepreneurs with deep expertise in their respective domains– fields like AI in biological engineering, healthtech, clean tech, agri-foods–are all key innovation drivers.
