Ynov x UNYRA partnership: birth of the Ystart incubator

UNYRA seals a new strategic partnership with Ynov Campus, a leading school in digital and creative fields. UNYRA supports Ynov Campus in setting up Ystart, Ynov Campus's incubator, designed to discover and support student entrepreneurs.

Ynov, a Natural Partner

With campuses across France and programs focused on digital, design and tech, Ynov Campus trains thousands of students every year who aspire to innovate. The partnership with UNYRA is a natural fit: both organizations share the conviction that younger generations have the potential to build tomorrow's world, provided they are given the means.

Ystart: Ynov Campus's Incubator

Ystart is Ynov Campus's incubator, set up with UNYRA's support. Its mission is to:

  • Discover the most promising entrepreneurial projects among Ynov students.
  • Support selected project leaders with mentorship, tools and a network.
  • Integrate UNYRA's DNA into the program: collaboration, social impact and technological tools (including MYCO for synergy detection).

Launch at the National Finals in Lille

The partnership was inaugurated at the national finals of student projects, organized at the Ynov campus in Lille. The event kicked off the discovery phase: identifying among the presented projects those that will join Ystart's first cohort.

Empowering the Youth

This partnership is rooted in a deep conviction of UNYRA: young people have the energy, the ideas and the ambition. What they often lack are the means, the tools and the right methodology. Ystart, led by Ynov Campus with UNYRA's support, is designed to bridge that gap and transform student ideas into concrete impact projects.
