Objectives
HEC Stand Up is based on the school's 10 years of experience and academic excellence, and aims to:
Develop self-confidence, overcome obstacles (lack of knowledge, resources, network, etc.)
Structuring your business idea and testing it on the market
Learn the basics (pitch, negotiation...) to launch your business quickly, without unnecessary costs
Programme
Launched in 2018, HEC Stand Up is a program of HEC Social Entrepreneurship Center. With support focused on "business" skills and soft skills, it enables participants to embark on their entrepreneurial adventure with peace of mind. HEC Stand Up has also shown a positive impact on the employability of women wishing to return to work at the end of the program.
Lasting a total of 10 weeks, the program consists of three modules, at the end of which participants receive a "HEC Stand Up" certificate:
8 hours of videos and webinars to develop and assert your entrepreneurial stance
4 weeks in the field to test your idea against market reality, meeting potential customers and users.
A 4-day group session to summarize what you've learned about launching a business and how to put it into practice.
At the end of the session, participants receive an HEC Stand Up certificate.
