Portrait of Gaspard Hafner

Entrepreneur, Builder

Self-taught — Code from the age of 13, entrepreneurship at 18: I learn a trade by practising it. Dozens of projects launched before one took off: online games as a teenager, a geolocation dating site in 2006 — built on Google Earth, before mobile phones made the idea obvious — and ten years running a digital agency. Every project taught me what the next one would demand.

Today I am the co-founder of MYM, the largest French creator-monetisation platform (20M users). Alongside it I build in the real economy: in the Lyon restaurant scene with Chefs d'Or (4 venues), luxury family-run holiday rentals with Villas Hafner, and commercial real estate.

Investor

I'm drawn to new ventures, and to the founders who build them. I invest alongside them and stay involved for the long run.
