Centrale-Audencia-ensa business incubator: a dedicated space for start-ups
The Centrale-Audencia-ensa business incubator brings together initiatives stemming from the Centrale, Audencia, ensa Nantes Alliance. The three establishments decided in January 2015 to combine their entrepreneurial support services on offer to their researchers, students and graduates in order to boost the creation of innovative start-ups. Objective: Ensure that entrepreneurs benefit from the best environment in which to develop their project, test business models and build their teams.
The incubator offers a dedicated work space, a support programme to develop key entrepreneurial skills and contact with a network of entrepreneurs and alumni of the three establishments.
Who can join the incubator?
- Students and graduates of the three establishments of the Alliance with a mature project (solution, market, team).
- They may have already followed courses in entrepreneurship - as a specialisation at Centrale, or as a major or an option at Audencia - or trained in project management via, for example, a major in Marketing in the Digital Age or a Master in Communication and Media at SciencesCom. Researchers and PhD students in the laboratories of the three establishments are also eligible to join the incubator.
- To be accepted within the incubator a formal business creation plan is required. A committee has the final say as to the acceptance of a project. This committee is composed of business creation support and finance experts, the incubator's coaches and ex-incubatees.
Start-ups currently in the incubator:
Diazonis' goal is for veterinarians and pet owners to be able to co-construct the health and well-being of their pets through cross-cutting technologies that are part of a global treatment approach.
