About FOMO
A global community built on kindness, connecting innovators across borders.
FOMO began with Elsa's journey from France to Silicon Valley, where she witnessed how the right connections accelerate innovation—yet remained limited by geography and privilege.
Today, we're creating a borderless network where ambitious people worldwide can access opportunities, share knowledge, and build meaningful relationships.
"In Silicon Valley, success often depends on who you know. I created FOMO to democratize that access and expand it globally."

Elsa Bismuth
Stanford Engineer • Paris Native • Community Builder
I was born in Paris and had the privilege of studying at École Polytechnique and Stanford. My work sits at the intersection of AI, community, and innovation. I've been lucky to explore various roles—from AI research at Stanford School of Medicine to data science at BCG X—all while nurturing my passion for connecting people across different ecosystems.
Whether I'm participating in a hackathon, collaborating in a hospital, or hosting a rooftop dinner, I try to bring the same energy: genuine curiosity, a personal touch, and a dedication to building bridges between Silicon Valley and Europe. I'd love to connect and explore how we might collaborate!
