Take the time to imagine a concept and develop
your project

It is important to take the time to set up your
project. The development phase of your concept
should therefore not be put aside because it is
decisive for the future. Frédéric Mazzella,
founder of Blablacar, understands that patience
is essential when you want to get started in
entrepreneurship.

Intro

• It all started during his studies in California
  where he discovered carpooling. There are much
  less congested routes there, dedicated to
  vehicles that transport more than one person the
  "carpool lanes".

Launch his Own carpooling startup

• Back in France, he wanted to return to Vendée
  with his family for Christmas. He tries to take a
  train, but all are full and he finds no place to
  go home. Disappointed, he then decides to seek
  carpooling, but there too, impossible.
• Its at this very moment that the entrepreneur in
  him wakes up. Everything becomes crystal clear
  he wants to launch his carpooling transport
  startup.

The idea

• The idea is simple but it has to mature. The
  founder will then work every evening and weekends
  on his concept, in parallel with his studies. It
  was only two years after he decided to join the
  European Institute of Business Administration in
  order to professionalize his project.

But Frédéric Mazzella will not be in full time on
the subject until two years later, with his
partner Francis Nappez. It was therefore 4 long
years before they devoted themselves entirely to
Blablacar!

• What is certain is that this past time has not
  been in vain. According to the Professional
  Marketing webzine, the company's growth is
  currently growing by 150 per year.

Blablacar is present in no less than 10 countries
around the world. According to Madyness, a
fundraising of more than 21 million euros has
just been carried out to continue to develop
abroad. The company has therefore not finished
growing and increasing its capital.
