Bitcoin is once again in the news, illustrating the prospects of the blockchain technology which is also at the heart of several start-ups nurtured by the École Polytechnique incubator, the Drahi-X Novation Center and/or launched by X alumni.
The second edition of the two flagship lists of the most promising French start-ups includes 9 launched by l’X Amulni in the Next40 and 14 more in the French Tech 120.
The Covid-19 pandemic has brought vaccines back to the forefront. They had been for long the neglected branch of the pharmaceutical industry, despite multiple innovations in which start-ups from the X ecosystem have been actively involved.
X-Up, the Ecole Polytechnique incubator, is calling for applications for its 13th promotion, which is open until February 28. X-Up is looking for start-ups in the fields of energy, industry 4.0 and aerospace.
Covid-19 times call for innovative and sustainable projects. One of the main missions of l’X is to work forward, training the leaders of tomorrow. And such example is of Christelle Rohaut (X2013), who joined the 2021 Forbes 30 Under 30 list (Consumer Technology category) with her start-up Codi, an economically and socially beneficial work-from-home alternative based in the US.
2020 marks the 10th anniversary of Jean-Louis Gerondeau-Safran Prize. It was celebrated during a virtual event that gathered many start-ups that it helped since its creation. It was also an occasion to unveil their three winners of this year.
Founded in 2017 by Ane Aanesland, Director of Research at CNRS, and Dmytro Rafalskyi, researcher at the Laboratory of Plasma Physics (LPP*), ThrustMe designs miniature thrust systems for small-sized satellites. It has announced its first contract with the European Space Agency (ESA) ARTES C&G programme.
On July 14, the i-Lab 2019 innovation contest selected 73 winners, among them seven start-ups created by Ecole Polytechnique alumni, of which one was granted a Grand Prix.
Challenges magazine published its ranking of the 100 start-ups to invest in for 2020. Among them, 14 were founded by École Polytechnique alumni or accelerated or incubated at École Polytechnique.
With the first micro-grid of the "Grid Power for Sustainability" project, installed at the Drahi - X Novation Center, scientists are testing a new energy management system to control and optimize energy use in buildings.
Two start-ups hosted by the Drahi - X Novation Center are developing smart building management solutions to maximize property performance by improving users’ experience and optimizing energy efficiency.
Applications for the 11th promotion of X-Up close on December 15. Nicolas Cruaud, co-founder of Néolithe explains why he thinks his start-up has beed selected to join the École Polytechnique’s incubator and what have been the key benefits from this opportunity.
