In this French‑language podcast, host Mohamed Boclet interviews entrepreneur Harold Gardas, co‑founder and CEO of KOOM (formerly Comedia). The conversation traces Harold’s journey from early ventures and a salaried stint to building a media‑agency hybrid that now generates €4 million in revenue with a 25 % EBITDA margin. They discuss how the founding team’s roles have evolved, with co‑CEO Flo moving from a purely technical function to a strategic partnership, and how they have recruited top talent to handle middle‑management, allowing Harold to focus on growth strategy. The core growth plan is acquisition‑driven: a recent €1 million equity raise from known business angels gives the company the leverage to secure additional bank debt, targeting the purchase of 5‑6 companies over the next five years to form a group. Harold outlines his five‑year vision of leading a multi‑entity group while fostering internal entrepreneurship, giving loyal employees the chance to spin off their own ventures within KOOM. He emphasizes the importance of balancing intense entrepreneurial work with family life, especially as he prepares to become a father. The interview also touches on broader advice for young people: embracing “mistakes” and non‑linear learning paths, leveraging autodidactic resources, and not letting academic performance dictate future success. Finally, Harold promotes his personal YouTube channel as a platform for sharing content and encourages listeners to support creators launching new media ventures.
