Diversity shines through in the 'Incubateur HEC Paris’ Fall 2022 intake!

It is once again this time of the year when people get back to business.

Women and their thirst to contribute to a better world on the front line

The WomenEntrepreneur4Good (WE4G) program confirms its legitimacy with the entirety of the latest class that joined the HEC Paris Incubator. The 18 women entrepreneurs, who have a project that responds to societal challenges, have successfully completed the acceleration stage of their startup and have every intention of continuing their momentum. 

From France to Greece, via Sri Lanka, Denmark or South Africa, the geographical diversity does not prevent these women from moving forward, quite the contrary. Recycling school uniforms, providing trendy clothes to the 'plus size' public, capitalizing on data and AI to better communicate on CSR objectives or accompanying organizations towards ecological transition, recycling cooking oil... these are all projects that we hope to see flourish within the HEC Paris Incubator!
