Alexandre Mars, is one of the most passionate people we've ever met. He is a serial entrepreneur and an engaged philanthropist. Over the last 15 years, he has successfully launched and sold several tech companies to acquirers like Publicis Groupe and Blackberry. After building great companies, what came later was EPIC 😉 In 2013, after selling his last company, Alexandre realized he was uniquely positioned to leverage the tools & methodology he learned in the startup world to do social good. As a result, he founded Epic Foundation, a non-profit that aims to ensure 100% of philanthropists' money reaches their charity of choice. Now Epic wants to encourage businesses to donate 1% of their profits to charity and launch a new platform to encourage non-wealthy donors to give to good causes. At TheFamily, we believe that anyone can become a great entrepreneur. Find more info here: http://www.thefamily.co/
