On Thursday, November 19, from 2 PM to 6 PM, students from Sophia Antipolis and Nice will be welcomed by local business creation support structures. Organized as part of the Innovons Ensemble program initiated by the RETIS network, this Open Day aims to develop an entrepreneurial culture among young people.
Students will be invited to discover European Centers for Enterprise and Innovation (CEEI), Incubators, and Technology Parks, as well as all the resources they implement to promote innovation in the region.
The goal is simple: to forge connections between students, business leaders, and support structures. Engagements between students and business leaders will facilitate a bridge between the two sectors, essential for the long-term enrichment of the economic fabric.
Promotion of internships in SMEs
This Open Day is also an opportunity to connect students seeking internships as part of their studies with SMEs searching for interns who lack visibility among students. A booklet containing internship offers from project leaders will be distributed to students (over 30 offers were proposed during the last edition).
The Innovons Ensemble program:
The goal is to foster synergies between entrepreneurs, students, and innovation actors to cultivate a taste for entrepreneurship and innovation. In addition to the Open Day, this program also includes:
– A student entrepreneurship contest: presentation of an innovative business creation project, in teams with complementary profiles.
– Promoting internships in innovative SMEs
– Development of a platform for exchanges between support structures for innovation and students.
