« “At ESAM, we are convinced that entrepreneurship is, above all else, a way of life and a philosophy according to which each person in society learns to take well thought out risks in order to build their personal and professional life plan. It is the main vector of employment creation in the knowledge economy of the 21st century and is the fundamental cultural element which will allow older businesses to adapt to an evolving society. 
This state of mind is expressed by the inauguration of a coworking and incubation space on the Paris and Lyon campuses – The Why Not Factory by ESAM. A real teaching laboratory dedication to the development of entrepreneurial culture. 
Since February 2017, over 180 students have joined the unit and around 20 companies have been created.
We are also creating a “Financial Factory” in the same spirit, which consists of consolidating innovate and concrete projects. We are inserting students from the Corporate finance cursus directly into start-ups or TPE during their classes so that they can be confronted with the reality of a business and it’s challenges.
For the third time in a row our students will go to Harvard to represent ESAM and the Groupe IGENSIA Education (formerly Groupe IGS). Last year’s students followed a wonderful course and benefitted from a solid experience that they can show off when they finish their financial and strategic studies. If you are attracted by the entrepreneurial, finance and management in a strong international context, ESAM is the school for you.” »
