The start of the new academic year at NEOMA in September was once again particularly busy for our students. Delphine Manceau welcomed them to each campus, in Reims, Rouen and Paris, before working on developing projects based on the three R’s: reduce, reuse and recycle.

“Whatever you choose, be passionate,” Delphine reiterated in her speech. “Passion is an incredible driving force that can take you very far. Here, we’ll give you the means to get started. So go ahead: be ambitious, be daring, take the plunge, transform yourself“.

Molka Abbes, Director of the Global BBA, was delighted to see the students again: “The start of the new academic year is always a time of discovery and pride. Everyone is happy, attentive and curious“.

Group work seminars

The students in Global BBA programme had to answer this question: How can technology promote the three Rs of reduce, reuse and recycle? This activity was an opportunity to introduce them to the Lean Start-Up concept, which is a certain way of starting a business and launching a product. From this collective brainstorming exercise, the students developed a project that they pitched in front of a jury.
