Les Doctoriales becomes PhD Innovation Week in Montpellier

The first edition of PhD Innovation Week was held from December 2 to 5, 2024, on the Boutonnet campus of Paul Valéry Montpellier III University. Formerly known as Doctoriales, this new edition offered an interactive and stimulating event entirely dedicated to innovation and entrepreneurship. It was a unique opportunity for doctoral researchers develop their projects and collaborate with experts while working on portfolios of innovative assets.

During these four days, around twenty doctoral researchers part in masterclasses and collaborative workshops on topics such as the business model canvas, intellectual property, and pitching. They also had the opportunity to meet regional innovation and entrepreneurship stakeholders and partners at the "Skills Village."

The week ended with pitch presentations to a panel of experts, featuring remarkable projects in the fields of health, food, and technology based on assets from Satt AXLR. This event was organized by the doctoral college of the University of Montpellier, the doctoral college of Languedoc-Roussillon, andthe Initium incubator.
