No one would have bet on Jérémy, stuck behind the counter of a video store, or on Bouna, who cleans airports.

What they lack in experience, they will make up for in audacity, while remaining true to their one credo, doing business with a human touch. Scouting raw talent while improvising their way up, they’ll fake it until they make it – chasing their American Dream and landing multi-million-dollar deals.
