Open House Day on November 30th at Audencia's Paris campus! Come and meet us, visit your future school and find out about all our international programs. Register now!
Our ambition is to make Audencia a place of exploration, experimentation and responsible transformation by and for the entrepreneurial commitment of its communities.
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
Entrepreneurship is not an option at Audencia; it's part of the core curriculum. Every student who graduates from Audencia is taught entrepreneurship in its own right.
Support systems
Audencia's Pôle Entrepreneur support systems are adaptable to each stage of development and are available to all entrepreneurial project managers.
