 The founders explain the genesis of the project 

“Uprise was born from a simple observation: the entrepreneurs we have been supporting for ten years are looking for spaces to regain energy and clarity, not just conferences. Padel has become the perfect arena — it reveals behaviors, strengthens concentration and creates authentic connections. Uprise is the meeting point between the rigor of high-level sport and the depth of exchanges between peers.”
 Nicolas Lemeteyer, CEO of Leikar Groupe 

“After 20 years of building and selling businesses, I’ve come to understand that sustainable performance is based on the balance between body, mind, and environment. Uprise creates exactly that balance—a space where entrepreneurs regain their energy, clarity, and ability to make decisions at the highest level.”
 Cédric Bourges, Co-founder of Uprise Padel 

“What I bring to Uprise is top-level experience — not just technical skills, but mindset. Managing pressure, making quick decisions, resilience: these are the same qualities I see in the best entrepreneurs. Uprise creates the conditions to develop them.”
 Amélie Détriviere, Head Coach
