Founded in 2019 by Gaspard Hafner and Pierre Garonnaire, MYM has quickly become a key player in the French and European digital landscape. In just three years, the platform has made it a priority to celebrate and support all forms of diversity. In June, MYM dedicated an entire month to highlighting diversity within its community and team, reinforcing a commitment that defines its identity.
MYM: Helping creators make a living from their passion
Designed to empower content creators, MYM enables them to generate recurring income through paid subscriptions, with users subscribing directly to their content.
Unlike other platforms, MYM frees creators from restrictive algorithms that dictate rates or content types. This independence allows them to manage their business on their own terms, post at their own pace, and offer high-quality content without compromise.
On MYM, the diversity of content mirrors the diversity of its creators. The platform brings together sports coaches, artists, trainers, chefs, models, astrologers, and many more—each contributing their unique talents to enrich the user experience.
Diversity: A core value at MYM
Diversity at MYM starts within the MYMcrew, the team that drives the company’s vision every day. Omar Arab, Chief People Officer, shares:
“At MYM, Pride Month is not just a celebration—it’s an opportunity to show solidarity with the LGBTQIA+ community and ensure that every team member feels valued. Our hiring process goes beyond résumés; we embrace unique life paths and encourage everyone to express their individuality freely.”
With this mindset, MYM has built a strong employer brand rooted in human values, humility, innovation, and creativity. The team has grown to 47 employees, with 21 new hires since early 2023. By prioritizing gender balance, MYM now welcomes one in two new recruits as women, reinforcing its commitment to equality.
An inclusive platform for creators
Open-mindedness and acceptance are at the heart of MYM. By giving everyone the freedom to express their uniqueness, the platform fosters a safe and supportive space. Maeva, a MYM content creator since 2021, shares her experience:
“I am a transgender woman and proud to represent the LGBTQIA+ community on MYM. The best way to silence judgment is to fully accept and love yourself. Freedom starts in your mind, and so does tolerance.”
With creators from all backgrounds, MYM is a space where everyone can be themselves and share their talents without fear of judgment.
