TESTIMONIALS

“This training helps to understand the various forms of partnership between startups and corporates (Incubators, Acquisitions, Competitions, etc) through a clear framework. For each of them, we get a testimonial from a corporate and a startup. I’ve been impressed by the variety of profiles involved by different approaches. As the atmosphere of this training is not about showcasing but SHARING, we get real, precious and practical information on this field that is far away from an exact science (e.g.: how to evaluate an incubator, how to recruit and maintain “innovation agents” within the company, etc.). I’ll also highly recommend this training to anyone who wants to develop his network with actives players in this field, corporates or startups.”

DESIGN RESEARCH

“Meeting experienced entrepreneurs of such caliber, with a wide variety of stories and contexts and in the same workshop, have a straight to the point view of corporate investors and alliance managers, is extremely valuable. Furthermore the workshop was a perfect place to contribute, share, give back and enrich my network. Great organisation and work environment.”
