The fifth edition of the BA06 event confirmed the incredible entrepreneurial dynamic of this department, centered around innovation, and fully achieved its objective: to enable innovative companies, key players, public/private investors, and supporters to meet in a unique location to realize business opportunities.
The event brought together 44 innovative companies, 33 key players, 22 investors, 20 supporters, and nearly 60 partner sponsors, operational and associated.

Four companies were awarded and received the following trophies, created by Tradmatik: Accompanying Trophy: OPTION WAY; Investor Trophy: DATACORP; Key Players Trophy: INVENTY; Best “Elevator Pitch” Trophy: STUDEAL.
Furthermore, the UPE06 awarded 58 “Small Business Act” certificates to the key players, supporters, and sponsors present, to attest to their CSR approach.
