ISMIN programme students stepped into the shoes of an entrepreneur during an immersive day organized on Thursday, January 23, on the Aix-Marseille-Provence Campus.

They experienced an exceptional entrepreneurial adventure intensively.

13 mixed and multidisciplinary teams from Mines Saint-Étienne or one of the higher education institutions that are members of Pépite Provence or the CRGE (Conférence Régionale des Grandes Écoles) discovered the successive stages of business creation during this retro-gaming inspired escape game.

Conceiving a Comprehensive Entrepreneurial Project

On the programme: understanding customer needs, designing a product or service based on an imposed scenario, technical challenges, budget creation, programming, prototyping, sales arguments, and pitches.

All these complementary activities allowed students to conceive a comprehensive entrepreneurial project before submitting it to a jury of experts for evaluation.

  • First place went to GREENSQUAD for its system of cameras hidden in nature to observe wild animals and raise public awareness about biodiversity preservation.
  • The Special Jury Prize was awarded to LEAF ME ALONE for its connected kit designed to help seniors cultivate their vegetable gardens.

Congratulations to all participants for the quality and originality of the projects presented.

And thank you to the Région Sud Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur for its support.
