Have students from the MSC Entrepreneurship work for you with the Business Incubation Project

BIP 2011 - You offer an intrapreneurial problematic to students: an idea that you think could be successful but, left in a drawer, has never been looked at, a difficulty which interferes with your development,...
After you present them that problematic, students will work in teams of 3 to 5 during 5 weeks, after which they will present you their work and propositions.

These workshops will take place during November and December ; they are supervised by the professor and consultants in creativity who guaranty the input of new ideas.

Last year, the best works were presented by the students to Directors of concerned companies. 1 internship offer, and 2 job offers were made to students who had made the best propositions.

Building on previous editions' success, the BIP offers you a great visibility to targeted students and translates from their part into concrete work that brings value to the corporate partner, as the following comments show:

“There is a Salon d’Entrepreneurship in Paris in February.
I will ask my marketing team to develop your idea and we will try it out there”
- Magali Kolnik, Sage

“I am really impressed by how deep that you went,
using the same method B2B as B2C, it is a perfect parallel !”
– Emmanuel Cotsoyannis, Les Dîners d’Eloïse

“You did a wonderful job on this project.
If any of you five want a job, I will give you my personal card, and you can have a job”
– Guillaume Richard, O2

“You have done an unbelievable amount of work and have covered all of
the areas that we wanted to explore. And we just love your ideas!”
- Food Industry Client

“Thank you for all your ideas, both the content and the presentations
were excellent, I will take back your ideas to work on in the store.”
- Galeries Lafayette
