\u201cCertain journeys transport us much further than we could imagine\u201d confides one of the founders of this French start-up. It\u2019s true that A\u00ebdle\u2019s adventures began on the web in 2011. There the headphones found their first 1,000 customers as well as the approbation of the international press.
