The Thematic Labsapproach

Within the framework of an open-innovation approach with large companies, the "Labs*", some of the challenges are supported by one or more Ticket for Change partners.

*The Lab is a pathway in parallel with the Entrepreneurial Pathway which allows for the refinement of advice and connections according to the themes brought by the entrepreneurs.
The Lab is composed of a pitch and connections with the partner who supports this theme, a specialised project referent, and thematic mentoring sessions.
