6. Grenoble’s Ecosystems An endogen ecosystem: Based on a world-class research in science and technology. This must be extended to Humanities and Social sciences – this is one of the actions for the next five-ten years Quality of education and students to feed the ecosystem. Student entrepreneurship is a key issue. The link between industry and cultural organizations, research and education determines the success Internationalization is a must! 6

10. Student entrepreneurship Most jobs are created by start-ups. Young people entrepreneurship has an important social impact at least at short term Prepare the next generation of entrepreneurs Risks and challenges: – Difficulty to get access to investment – Lack of experience: marketing, sales, finance, HR management,…. – Limited network Therefore, we need to act along three dimensions: – Breath the spirit of entrepreneurship into our students – Promote entrepreneurship education – Support projects whence created

Grenoble’s innovation system (GIS) is performing exceptionally well – probably difficult to export! In order to consolidate GIS, we are in the process of merging the local universities and integrating all R&HE institutions into a single university, figurehead of GIS In order to consolidate GIS, we are in the process of merging the local universities and integrating all R&HE institutions into a single university, figurehead of GIS At the on the international level, we are working on emerging a network of Innovation- intensive universities (EIU) that should be extended to other continents.
