Launching tomorrow’s leading startups with bold entrepreneurs

Otium Studio builds on Otium’s entrepreneurial DNA and expertise, bringing together the key ingredients that have driven the success of numerous innovative ventures created, incubated, and launched at Otium.

Examples include Dossier (OS ’18), the leading online brand for affordable luxury perfumes, Ensol (OS ’23), which simplifies and accelerates the adoption of solar energy by French households, and Giftory (OS ’23), offering over 4,000 giftable experiences across the United States.

Our goal is to launch 10 startups per year, each with the potential to generate €100M in capital gains within 5 to 7 years, by targeting attractive, often fragmented or undisrupted markets — and partnering with entrepreneurs handpicked for their ambition and execution capabilities.

A unique model

Salary

We offer a salary from day one of incubation, enabling our partner entrepreneurs to fully focus on launching their venture with peace of mind.

Funding

Backed by the financial support of a true investment fund, our founders can focus on creating value instead of spending time fundraising.

Resources

We provide office space in the heart of Paris, along with immediate access to in-house expertise in strategy, recruitment, marketing, finance, and legal structuring.

Speed

Our decision-making processes are extremely fast — whether it’s to join the studio, launch a project, or secure funding.

Ecosystem

We offer access to Otium’s powerful ecosystem of over 200 entrepreneurs across Europe and the U.S., as well as to our extensive network of business, banking, and institutional partners.

Long term vision

As long as the project creates value, we stay committed. Unlike other studios, we do not impose a fixed exit timeline.
