Entrepreneurship at ESSEC - Souhayl on the different options available to students


Entrepreneurship at ESSEC


The Entrepreneurship Track

Students interested in entrepreneurship can take courses in this area choosing the entrepreneurship track. It consists of a group of subjects related to entrepreneurship and students willing to create a start-up in the short or long term are highly encouraged to enroll in the subjects offered by this track. These subjects combine theoretical knowledge with real cases.


The Social Entrepreneurship Chair combines courses with workshops and conferences in order to give the students a deep knowledge about the social entrepreneurship world. This chair organizes a global competition every year, in collaboration with UC Berkeley, called the Global Social Venture Competition (GSVC).
