The Business School
In today’s world, a “maker” is someone who takes their destiny into their own hands, who shapes and molds their own future. Yet this is not a purely individual approach. On the contrary, it is a collaborative process. In other words, the principle is no longer “Do It Yourself”, but rather “Do It Together”. This concept perfectly reflects our vision of what an entrepreneur is, i.e. a person who tries, experiments, fails, starts again and learns by doing.

Location
Lyon is not only home to many of France’s large corporations which now operate worldwide; it also attracts many international firms and organizations. For centuries, the city has been a trading centre at the cross-roads between Northern Europe and the Mediterranean South. While its entrepreneurial culture dates back to the silk manufacturers in the early 19th century, its present dynamism is based on a diversified range of modern industries: energy, chemicals, vaccines, laser technology, etc...
Lyon, the capital of a dynamic region at a great location
- 3rd largest city in France
- #1 region in France for incoming international companies: 900 foreign capital companies (above 50 employees) employing about 165,000 people.
- A major education capital in Europe: around 150,000 students
- Lyon gathers many International Headquarters: Atari, Bayer CropScience, BioMérieux, Plastic Omnium, Rhodia, Sanofi Pasteur... and renowned international organisations: Interpol (international criminal police organisation), Euronews (Europe's #1 non-stop television news channel), Handicap International (NGO), International Agency for Research on Cancer, IARC (WHO), European Center for Humanitarian Health (CESH), European Center for Virology and Immunology (CERVI).
- 2,000 years of history: its Gallo-Roman heritage, its Italian architecture and cosmopolitan population testify to the city's openness to multiple influences.
- A multitude of landscapes, and leisure activities: Lyon Rhône-Alpes among the top 5 tourist destinations in Europe.
- The cuisine is a source of great pride: Lyon is home to 22 of the best restaurants in France, according to the Michelin Guide.
Lyon, a cultural centre
- Throughout the year, the city of Lyon hosts many outdoor festivals and events bringing the community closer together and stimulating the curiosity of locals and foreigners. Among others the city hosts the renowned “Fête des lumières”, the “Nuits Sonores” and the “Nuits de Fourvière”.

Special events such as the “Biennales de la Danse”, the “Biennales d’Art Contemporain” and the national music festival, « Fêtes de la Musique” in June are the result of Lyon’s great artistic minds.
- The historical heritage of Lyon is found not only by going to legendary museum such as the famous “Musée des Beaux Arts” but also by walking or biking around the city. The stones of Lyon burst with history and neighborhoods in downtown Lyon such as the “Pentes de la Croix Rousse”
