Every year the business school for management organizes the IMD Startup Competition to select promising startups to work with their MBAs and EMBAs. The startup would then benefit from the experience and the insights from top business school students. This year, 12 companies were chosen to collaborate with the EMBAs and travel to the Silicon Valley to pitch their ideas to venture capitalists. 15 other startups will be receiving the support of the MBA class during the first semester of 2018.
Venture Kick is happy to announce that 16 of our alumni won the competition. Congratulations!
