Entrepreneurship with Audencia

Our ambition is to make Audencia a place of exploration, experimentation and responsible transformation by and for the entrepreneurial commitment of its communities.

Audencia - Students around a desk
An entrepreneurial dynamic rooted in the long term and its territory

Among business and management schools, Audencia was a pioneer by being part of the first wave of schools to set up an incubator in the early 2000s. This system has been run jointly with Centrale Nantes since 2015 and has been extended to the Alliance with ENSA Nantes since 2016.

Audencia collaborates with all stakeholders in the Nantes area to promote entrepreneurship (PEPITE, La Cantine Numérique, la French Tech nantaise, Le Wagon Nantes, and more)

Entrepreneurship in our training courses
