The HEC Paris Center of Incubation & Acceleration is one of the top startups support program ecosystem with more than 200 companies supported in parallel, and currently runs several incubator, like the Incubateur HEC Paris, and accelerator programs with corporate partners such as L'Oréal, Meta and TotalEnergies, as well as with international governmental partners in Korea, Japan and India.

As part of the HEC Paris Institute, the Center contributes to the vision of making HEC Paris the best ecosystem in Europe for innovators and entrepreneurs to solve the world's challenges. Its mission is to reveal and continuously grow talents and companies to accelerate positive outcomes on business and society.
