The 2024 Dublin Tech Summit is taking place today in the RDS and on the first day of the conference I caught up with Nicolas Sauvage, President of TDK Ventures and one of the Dublin Tech Summit speakers. Nicolas spoke to me about his background, what TDK ventures does, what they invest in and more.
