“We went to the HEC Paris campus and we felt that there was something missing.” 👀 This was the kickoff that led Amine A.., Fabio Sommer, and Elodie Ben to organize this year’s edition of the HEC Paris Venture Capital Bootcamp. The goal? Demystifying the VC industry for HEC Paris Masters students and make entrepreneurship accessible for the greatest number!

This year, the program has innovated to better fit with the HEC Paris "learning by doing" approach. 👇 200 students from the Grande Ecole have stepped into the shoes of an investor, pitching startups from the X-HEC Entrepreneurs program in front of real investors! 🎥 Watch the video for an immersive experience of the 2024 edition of the bootcamp!
