		    <title>PEEL : First steps into the adventure of enterprise at the University of Lorraine</title>
			<link>http://eureka.lorraine.eu/jahia/Jahia/cache/bypass/actualites?actu=20822</link>
			<description><![CDATA[
Available to every University of Lorraine student, the Lorraine Student Enterprise Centre (PEEL) encourages and supports the creation of enterprise. Interview with its director, Christophe Schmitt, holder of the Enterprise Chair at the University of Lorraine.

Eureka.Lorraine : What is PEEL's role in the University ?

 Christophe Schmitt : PEEL's objective is, above all, to develop the enterprise culture among students at the University of Lorraine. We raise awareness, provide training and support for all those wishing to create, take on or develop an enterprise. The Centre also contributes to making the University an agent for development in the region. It works with such partners as the Lorraine Region, Metz, Nancy and Sarreguemines city authorities, the Lorraine Incubator, Promotech, the Enterprise Network, CRCIL and others. Three years after its formation, PEEL is now well known to students. Last year we raised the awareness of nearly 2,200 students.

"Trial one's project and gain the benefit of advice from professionals"



 

 
 &nbsp;
 

 

Can you give us some examples of actions undertaken ?


 We invite students to take part in "HapPeel Hours". These thematic events organised in the bars of Nancy and Metz are an opportunity to exchange ideas with young entrepreneurs, to gain an overview of the enterprise movement and to identify key players. Another flagship action conducted by PEEL is The Business Unit Pathway. This support programme for project leaders offers the chance of a no-risk first entrepreneurial experience, of trialling projects and benefiting from advice from professionals: engineers, jurists, accountants, investors, and so on. Coached by a business leader, the student develops a roadmap and gains the skill to construct a communications plan, and skills in financial steps to be taken and the protection of trademarks and patents. Students also receive financial assistance to get their projects started. Focused on bringing ideas to maturity, this nearly 150-hour pathway is carried out on placement and entry is gained through selection of project plans. Seven projects were supported last year, of which nearly half are about to turn into business creation. This year, we ought to be able to support about twenty of the forty or so projects presented.

 
 &nbsp;
 

 

What are the keys to entrepreneurial success ?


 To be an entrepreneur, the first thing is to be enterprising. We encourage students to formalise their projects in the deepest sense and to ask themselves the right questions: what is my entrepreneurial capacity and competence? What motivates me? What am I prepared to lose? It goes without saying, entrepreneurship is not innate, and it needs to be nurtured. It is important to exchange ideas, to surround yourself and to seek out players for the project because they all hold a piece of the jigsaw. Another factor to take into account is that of international opportunities. In this respect, the Greater Region is an excellent field of play for our student entrepreneurs.
