With BFM Business, Frédéric Mazzella is launching a ten-episode series called La Mission. It aims to dive into the heart of the creation of Frédéric Mazzella’s new startup: Captain Cause. After tackling mobility with Blablacar, the entrepreneur is positioning himself on the environment.
The Mission on BFM, what is it?
La Mission is the new BFM Business show broadcast from January 21, 2023. Over 10 episodes, it allows you to follow the creation of a startup behind the scenes. The objective? Allow us to concretely see the highlights that punctuate the life of an entrepreneur: their successes, but also their struggles.
The Mission will therefore follow the new adventure of Frédéric Mazzella, known for having created Blablacar. The show will be broadcast on television and radio, at 7:56 a.m. and 12:56 p.m., on BFM Business, but also on social networks and the media website.
The general director of BFM BusinessArnaud de Courcelles, is delighted with the creation of such a format with Frédéric Mazzella. “ We are very happy to continue our collaboration with Frédéric Mazzella who has placed his trust in us to participate in this unique format. More than ever at the service of entrepreneurs, the channel continues to develop new formats and new ways of telling the story of the economy. This series embodies BFM Business’ duty to highlight all the players in French economic life. » It must be said that this project highlights the difficulties of entrepreneurship and the challenges that await those who want to launch their own startup.
Captain Cause, the new project by Frédéric Mazzella
After Blablacar, Frédéric Mazzella returned to his first love, that of entrepreneurship. Indeed, the founder of the iconic startup that revolutionized carpooling and mobility is now tackling the associative world, through the prism of sustainable development.
With Captain Cause, Frédéric Mazzella intends to make it easier to obtain funding for associations that carry out projects with an environmental and societal impact. Indeed, Captain Cause connects companies and associations with the aim of involving customers, partners and collaborators in these projects.
Despite this great idea, Frédéric Mazzella says that he did not necessarily think of creating a new startup after Blablacar. “ I didn’t think I would “fall in love again” with an entrepreneurial project. It was in the face of current societal challenges that I decided to return to the path of entrepreneurship. Captain Cause is a company with a mission: we are creating a new source of financing for projects with social and environmental impact. Thanks to the mini-series “THE MISSION”, viewers and internet users will be able to live the adventure with us, and go behind the scenes of the creation of our impact startup: we will share our ambitions, our emotions, our disappointments and our successes! »
