In recent years, entrepreneurship has become an increasingly important element of activities at I\u00c9SEG. Increasing numbers of our students have a desire to launch their own business and\/or to get a solid foundation in entrepreneurship and how to build a business successfully.<\/p>\n

Following courses at the Bachelor level, designed to introduce students to different elements of\u00a0business and entrepreneurship, students in the Grande \u00c9cole \u2018Master in Management\u2019 program have the opportunity to follow a two-year specialization in entrepreneurship.<\/p>\n

They select from a wide range of electives, for example topics such as the A to Z of entrepreneurship, entrepreneurial finance, social innovation and entrepreneurship, or writing effective business plans).<\/p>\n

Business creation projects: \u201cProjet de creation d\u2019entreprise\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

All Students in the Master in Management program also have the option to apply to take part in the semester-long module entitled (projet de creation d\u2019entreprise – PCE). Under the guidance of a pool of academic and professional experts, each year around 50 – 70 students develop a detailed project to create a new company and a full business plan. At the end of the semester, they \u2018pitch\u2019 their concept to a panel of academic and professional experts.<\/p>\n

\u201cA significant number of these PCE actually become start up business either when the student graduates or in the following years\u201d, explains Professor Jonas Debrulle, head of the entrepreneurship track at I\u00c9SEG. \u201cThe best projects are also \u2018fast tracked\u2019 in the application process to be considered as one of the companies that can join the School\u2019s incubator at the Lille or Paris campus,\u201d he adds.<\/p>\n

Each year, the incubator provides a selected number of new start-ups with dedicated space and dedicated professional support to grow and develop their start-ups both in Lille & Paris. These currently include:<\/p>\n

SmartRepair: a company focusing on smart phone repair;<\/p>\n

InstantChef<\/a>: an online platform which supplies high-quality fine food products;<\/p>\n

Uneviedefamille.fr<\/a>: an online platform dedicated to helping families looking for childcare;<\/p>\n

And a number of textile\/or fashion based start- ups such as 100Culottes, ClaraLoca, Les Heritiers, North Hill<\/a>, and Val\u00f4me<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Companies in the incubators are provided with free professional guidance and support from a wide variety of academic and professional experts from within the School and outside.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u00c9SEG also works closely with a range of partners in sector of entrepreneurship (such as the R\u00e9seau Entreprendre<\/a>, PEPITE<\/a>)\u00a0 to ensure that all members of the incubator get regular access to training, conferences, and other networking opportunities that will help in their daily activities,\u2019 explains Professor Christophe Garonne, who is responsible for the School\u2019s incubator. It also worth noting that entrepreneurs from the School (students and alumni) can also take part in the entrepreneurship-related activities organized by I\u00c9SEG network alumni association such as the entrepreneurs club (Club\u2019Eur).<\/p>\n

Professors Garonne and Debrulle are part of a dedicated team of academic experts at the School who carry out internationally peer reviewed research on entrepreneurship-related issues (such as team entrepreneurship, the role of gender in entrepreneurship and social entrepreneurship).<\/p>\n

Social entrepreneurship<\/strong><\/p>\n

I\u00c9SEG is particularly active in the area of social entrepreneurship; together with the Fondation Immochan and I\u00c9SEG network (I\u00c9SEG\u2019s alumni network), it organizes the CR\u00c9ENSO competitition<\/a> which rewards the creators of a social enterprise in France.<\/p>\n

In addition to financial prizes for the best social enterprises, students from the Grande \u00c9cole program support a number of nominated entrepreneurs for one whole year in the area of their Master specialization: marketing \/ communication, audit \/ management control, human resources, management \u2026 depending on the requirements of the project. For example, in 2014\/15 a total of 15 companies in France<\/a> were supported by a Student from I\u00c9SEG.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the School\u2019s student association, I\u00c9SEG Enactus, which is part of the Enactus international network, is extremely active. Enactus works with leaders in business and higher education to mobilize students to make a difference in their communities while developing the skills to become socially responsible business leaders.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
