Following a hands-on, multidisciplinary, and interactive approach, the program offers a unique opportunity to challenge your assumptions and explore the various dimensions of creativity in multiple sectors while connecting with an exceptional group of renowned, passionate professionals and deeply inspiring students. It has definitely changed the way I view the world and our future. »

today shares the same physical space than us ! So our summer school relationship went really far, it’s been like a business incubation space, but also friendship. During the summer school , there are several people that not work in the same industry than you and this is what makes the whole point of the concept.»
