What SEINE.IO does

Seine Club (operating as SEINE.IO) is a French experiential services company founded in 2022 that converts a 1960s Freyssinet cargo barge into a 250+ m² floating event venue at Port Van Gogh marina in Asnières-sur-Seine, ten minutes from Paris and La Défense. Its core asset, "La Péniche," is divided into seven modular rooms (La Vigie, La Cale des Possibles, Carré des Officiers, La Timonerie, three meeting rooms, plus fore and aft decks) accommodating 4 to 50+ people, complemented by an exclusive nautical fleet comprising an electric boat (Vincent), a solar boat (Genesis), and paddles/kayaks — described by the company as the only such combined offering in Île-de-France. Revenue is generated through three streams: (1) venue and boat rental for seminars, workshops, and corporate events (from €300 to €900+ HT per session), (2) themed team-building activities structured around four pillars — AVENTURE (nautical and physical), FLOW (wellness), INSPIRATION (Impressionist heritage and creativity), and CARE (environmental and RSE) — and (3) transformative workshops delivered via strategic partners Lonsdale (Breakpoint for creativity/ideation) and The Flow Studio (Fresque des Déchets, inclusion, corporate transformation).

The company sells primarily through direct B2B sales to enterprise HR, RSE, and events teams across La Défense and the Paris region, supplemented by inbound contact forms (with a 24-hour response commitment), Instagram and LinkedIn content, and the community-led The Flow movement. The target customer mix spans enterprise consulting and banking groups to mid-market PMEs and tech companies, with named case studies including a La Défense consulting group, a Nanterre PME board, a Levallois tech firm onboarding program, and a La Défense bank RSE initiative. Seine Club operates as a French "entreprise à mission" (mission-driven company) and holds three institutional recognitions: Ticket for Change "Entrepreneurs 2024" lauréat, the FFCK "Gardiens de la Rivière" club label, and the Hauts-de-Seine "Label Tourisme Durable." Key strategic partnerships include the Fédération Française de Canoë-Kayak, hospitality venues Rosa Bonheur and Splash, and creative/impact consultancies Lonsdale and The Flow Studio. The core team consists of founder Nicolas Sirot and operational/commercial director Camille Hochart, with an extended team of animators and partners; no external investors, parent company, or funding rounds are disclosed.

Scale indicators5 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights6 records

Regional players

• Paris Canal: Operator of canal and river cruises in the Paris region including corporate privatizations. Comparable because it monetizes the same Parisian waterway infrastructure for B2B and tourist experiences, though with a different vessel profile.
• Pavillon de l'Arsenal: Paris architecture/urban-planning exhibition and event space hosting corporate and institutional events. Comparable as a distinctive Paris venue competing for the same corporate event budget with a curated, content-driven experience positioning.

Direct peers

• Rosa Bonheur: Iconic Parisian guinguette/event venue along the Seine (Asnières-sur-Seine and other locations). Comparable because it is both Seine Club's named partner and a direct competitor for afterworks, privatisations, and corporate gatherings in the same micro-market.
• Ground Control Paris: Large outdoor experiential venue near Gare de Lyon hosting food, culture, and corporate events. Comparable because it competes for the same Paris-based corporate off-site and event budgets with an unconventional, mission-driven venue positioning.
• Wanderlust Paris: Parisian experiential beach/club and event venue hosting corporate and private events. Comparable because it targets the same enterprise and private event market in Paris with a differentiated venue concept and curated programming.
• Off Paris Seine: Floating hotel and event venue moored on the Seine in Paris. Directly comparable to Seine Club because it shares the same river-based, repurposed-barge asset model for hosting commercial guests and events in the Paris market.

Broad incumbents

• Compagnie des Bateaux Mouches: Established operator of Seine sightseeing cruises and on-board dining/corporate events in Paris. Comparable as a broad incumbent offering boat-based Seine experiences including corporate privatization, but at much larger scale and with a tourism-led core proposition.

Emerging players

• Marin d'Eau Douce: Operator of electric boat rentals and on-water dining experiences on French rivers including Paris-area locations. Comparable because it operates electric boats (similar to Seine Club's 'Vincent') for premium leisure and corporate groups on the same waterways.
• Canalous: French boating holidays and charter operator focused on canal and river experiences. Comparable because it operates a fleet of small craft for guided experiences on French waterways, partially overlapping Seine Club's paddle/kayak/electric-boat offering.
• Locaboat: Self-drive boating holidays on French and European canals and rivers. Comparable as a niche French experiential boating operator with overlapping customer interest in water-based leisure experiences, though at a different scale and self-service model.
