Hesion at the national mini-enterprise championship

Hesion attended the Cité des Sciences et de l’Industrie in La Villette on Wednesday 30 May 2018 to present the communication and marketing award to a team of young entrepreneurs.

The national mini-enterprise championship brings together young people aged 13-23 from across France and its overseas departments and territories. These students compete in four categories: Lower Secondary, Upper Secondary, Higher Education and Employment Initiative.

The competing teams were selected in advance within their respective regions to present their projects and the mini-enterprises they had created. The young participants compete for 16 awards and dream of the ultimate prize: being named France’s best mini-enterprise and travelling to Serbia to compete against teams from other European countries.

With innovation at the heart of Hesion, this initiative – which enables young people to start a business and develop new products – struck a chord with us. It is a perfect match for our DNA.

Pierre Guillet, Chairman and CEO of Hesion, presented the communication and marketing award to the winner. In his speech, he explained that entrepreneurship is essential in France and that he firmly believes initiatives such as Entreprendre Pour Apprendre help students develop a better understanding of the economy from an early age.
