[ENTREPRENEURSHIP] - Graine d'entrepreneur contest

 This year, IUM proudly hosted the Graine d'entrepreneur contest once again!

▪ Since 2015, the Jeune Chambre Économique de Monaco « JCI Monaco » has organized this Entrepreneurship Day, allowing students to become business creators and develop their own projects.

▪ Guided by experienced mentors, our bachelor's students crafted business plans and pitched their ideas to a jury.

👏 Congratulations to all participants, and special kudos to the winning team, Nova Horizon, featuring Mattia Cascone, Francesco Fiardi, Kuzey Postaci, Benedetta Quadrelli, Ludovica Schiano, and Simone Tunno!

▪ Nova Horizon breathes new life into vintage yachts by integrating modern technologies, sustainable materials and innovative designs. Their vision? To create a more sustainable and cost-effective future for the yachting industry while preserving the charm of timeless vessels.

“This journey was truly remarkable", shared Francesco Fiardi. "Working collaboratively in such a proactive environment taught me invaluable lessons about entrepreneurship, teamwork and transforming a vision into reality.

Our company, Nova Horizon, was born from my curiosity about the yachting industry and a strong desire to offer a more sustainable and budget-friendly alternative within this sector. What started as a personal ideas has been brought to life through the dedication of an incredible team and the invaluable guidance of our mentor, Mr. Lorenzo Ottonello."
