The Pizza, The Paradox, and The Partnership: Building Accelex
If you want to understand how Accelex began, forget the usual founder–VC mythology of pitch decks and boardrooms. Our story starts with a pizza. More precisely, a pizza at Ambiente in Strassen, just across from the CSSF, where Franck spent most of the meal asking questions… and Jérôme spent most of it not eating. Not because the pizza wasn’t good, but because Franck’s curiosity left no room for chewing. It was the first sign of a habit that would define the next five years: relentless inquiry on one side, quiet observation on the other, and a shared sense that something important was forming — even if none of us yet knew the full shape of it.
