Presentation
The LabEx Entreprendre
The LabEx Entreprendre was created in 2011, during the first wave of the call for projects. It was ranked A by the international jury.
It is a collaborative project that brings together some 200 researchers from six research teams in Law, Economics and Management, conducting research on entrepreneurship and innovation in relation to sustainable development issues.
As the only LabEx dedicated to entrepreneurship, Entreprendre is strongly integrated into a dense network of academic and institutional partners, ensuring the excellence of its work in research, training and development. It is one of the 6 LabEx of the I-SITE Montpellier Université d’Excellence (MUSE).
Objectives / Missions
Its activities are carried out within the framework of research programs (within which knowledge is produced) and chairs (in charge of disseminating and valorizing this knowledge).
In the field of training, LabEx Entreprendre pursues an active policy of training in research and through research by financing doctoral contracts, as well as study and research engineer positions. It also supports some fifteen master’s degrees in law, economics and management, and offers executive training (seminars, Executive MBA, MOOC).
As far as valorization is concerned, LabEx Entreprendre is a committed player in the entrepreneurial ecosystem at the local and national levels: participation in ministerial working groups, parliamentary missions, assistance in the creation of academic spin-offs, support for several dozen student-entrepreneurs, organization of and participation in several hundred conferences for entrepreneurship and innovation professionals, etc.
Jean-Marie Courrent, director of the Labex since February 2018, is a professor in entrepreneurship and SME management at the Montpellier Management Institute (University of Montpellier).

Implementation of the Open Innovation platform: Digital Startup Challenge
Winner of the Disrupt Campus call for projects in 2017 (bpifrance and ANR), Digital Startup challenge is an innovative collaborative educational device designed around an open innovation platform to bring a digital experience to teams of students from all types of university courses (law, management, medical, scientific, architecture, letters…) or engineering schools. Its objective is also to accompany all types of organizations (public, associations…) and companies (start-ups, SMEs, large groups) facing digital transformation issues. In an open innovation approach, the latter propose a challenge to which the students must respond, in teams. This training method allows for experiential learning. Confronted with real problems, students can empirically test the theoretical concepts they have acquired and observe the practices at work in the structures.
