X-Novation Center
Welcome to the Drahi-X Novation Center, the Ecole polytechnique's Center for Entrepreneurship and Innovation!
Located at the entrance to the Ecole Polytechnique campus, the Drahi X-Novation Center is a place of innovation on the Paris-Saclay plateau of more than 5000m2.
- It was created in 2015 thanks to the patronage of Patrick Drahi, former student of the École polytechnique (1983) and president of the Altice group.
Drahi-X Novation Center supports each stage of the innovation continuum by
- raising awareness of our students about innovation through learning-by-doing,
- acculturating researchers to the challenges of business creation and support them upstream of their project,
- incubating technological early-stage start-ups with programs adapted to their maturity and needs,
- connecting innovative players in the Ecole polytechnique and IP Paris ecosystem.
