IN LONDON Every year, the HEC UK Office organises a Learning Expedition in London for over 100 entrepreneur students from the HEC Startup Launchpad. This program, now run by the Innovation & Entrepreneurship Center, works like an accelerator, designed to help student entrepreneurs launch their start-up within 10 weeks. After a few years online, this year, the trip took place in person between March 13-16th in London, and included Entrepreneurs’ Talks and a Pitch Competition in two rounds with its final “Grand Pitch Night” in a beautiful cinema in Central London - streamed live on Youtube and LinkedIn - an exceptional evening for the students, and for the alumni community who was very proud of the new HEC entrepreneurs generation!

The initiative is a unique accelerator programme that supports green entrepreneurs at the early stages of their journey. The 7-month online programme equips women entrepreneurs with unique resources and capabilities to innovate and grow their businesses by providing coaching, visibility, technical support, exposure and access to an ecosystem of stakeholders and global partners.
