École Polytechnique’s incubator, X-UP, plays an active role in innovation events such as Meetup Greentech, GreenTech Innovation and ChangeNOW. These events provide an opportunity to showcase projects, arrange one-to-one meetings, expand your network and learn about the latest trends.

By attending ChangeNOW, École Polytechnique demonstrates its commitment to becoming a major player in the greentech sector, which is a key focus of the strategy of its Centre for Entrepreneurship and Innovation, the X-Novation Center.

For several years, X-UP has supported start-ups that develop solutions for the energy transition, reducing the carbon footprint, managing resources sustainably, and promoting clean mobility. One example is Radiant, a start-up specialising in producing carbon-free heat for industrial clients, which was part of the X-UP 17 cohort from April 2024 to February 2025. The company's founders, Thomas Delhon and Alexandre Meurisse, will also be in attendance at this event.
