Final of the Next Startupper Challenge - Championing the Next Gen of Entrepreneurs
The Next Startupper Challenge, sponsored by CCI France, highlights a new kind of founder—students who aren’t waiting to graduate to make an impact. This inter-school competition brings together young entrepreneurs tackling today’s most pressing challenges with bold, purpose-driven ideas. For this 7th edition, six outstanding finalists have been selected for the strength of their vision and the potential of their impact. They are: Artemisia (Typhaine Brual), Atmosph’air (Bérénice Arias), Greeny Solutions (Zied Madini), Awoken (Corentin Neker), Young Jobs (Maxence Lamhaut), and Fairconn AiCT (Regine Ngah Ekembe). These finalists will pitch their projects to a jury of experts, with the support of their mentor for the evening, Julie Huguet. The grand winner will be revealed on Thursday, June 12, during the Global Awards Ceremony. This session is your chance to discover the next generation of changemakers—creative, committed, and already shaping a better future.
