Lhyfe's first steps
After becoming a father and driven by a desire to make a positive impact on the planet's future, Matthieu Guesné, along with seven co-founders, founded Lhyfe. The project aimed to ensure a better tomorrow through the use of green and renewable hydrogen.
Lhyfe raises €8 million in funds from five different public and private investors.
The first employees join the founders, and together they work to set up Lhyfe's first industrial site in Bouin, Vendée.
