17 entrepreneurs mobilized for our first Start-up Summit

A golden opportunity for Digital College’s entrepreneurial course students

Each year, we revise our programs and try to further offer each sector the chance to meet inspiring professionals during events designed by our teams. The Master’s degree in Start-up Management and e-Commerce program now has this ambition within a specialization in which networking and sound advice are primary importance.

Each student in the final year of this program has the objective of creating their own company and thus following the courageous path of entrepreneurship. In line with these ambitions, confronting reality and talking concretely about successes, difficulties, and failures are essential steps in their learning.

On the agenda: successful entrepreneurs, fundraising, and storytelling

During a whole week, from April 19 to 23, we will have the pleasure to welcome many professionals with a program tailored to the Start-up Management and e-Commerce sector, with Antoine Le Conte, Co-founder of Cheerz, and Gilles Abecassis, Co-founder of Bagelstein. They will even have the opportunity to meet with international entrepreneurs via videoconference in Dubai, Cambodia, Rio, or San Francisco
