EDHEC associated to Euratechnologies and Stanford

On behalf of Nord-Pas de Calais Regional Council and in partnership with Edhec Business School:

Stanford University is extending its innovation expertise across the Atlantic in a new partnership with EuraTechnologies in Lille, France. Stanford's Department of Management Science and Engineering (MS&E) is creating a custom-ized education program for the region called “The Stanford-Lille Innovation and Entrepreneurship Program.”


The program is designed expressly for executives of high-tech and innovative start-ups, small and medium enterprises (SMEs), or innovation departments of large accounts in the region. It consists of two weeks of executive education, one week at Stanford and one week in Lille. Classes are taught by Stanford faculty supported by guest lecturers from Silicon Valley with expertise in entrepreneurship and innovation. Participants engage in active learning techniques turning ideas into strategy and upon their return to France, convert strategy into action.
The Stanford Center for Professional Development, re-nowned for its delivery of custom education solutions to industry, will spearhead the program.

The first of its kind for Stanford and Lille, this program offers French entrepreneurs a window into what makes Silicon Valley successful.
A catalyst for many of the technologies and companies that define Silicon Valley, the Stanford School of Engineering, and its MS&E department, is a leader in research and education related to the information-intensive, technology-based economy.
The department is home to many innovative programs and its faculty have created and advised countless high-tech companies such as Google, Cisco, Yahoo!, and HP.
