WEI3 is celebrating its 10th anniversary. From September 25 to 27, 2026, IAE Aix will host the 10th edition of this entrepreneurial weekend, which has become, over the years, a must-attend event for first-year MSc students.
Once again this year, the event remains true to the spirit of WEI3 since its inception: over the course of a weekend, students come up with an idea for a product or service and then turn it into a real startup project. This challenging exercise pushes them to consider not only the business model but also environmental and societal impact—two dimensions that are now inseparable from any business venture.
Since its inception, the event has been supported by Pépite Provence and relies on a strong partnership with the IAE Alumni Association, whose members provide on-the-ground support to the teams each year.
10 Years of Collaboration with IAE Aix Alumni
Ten years also means nine past editions and hundreds of students who have participated, accompanied by alumni who came to share their career paths and expertise. This spirit of knowledge-sharing is what makes WEI3 so unique: new students discover the diversity of career paths available after IAE, while graduates reconnect with the energy of their own graduating class.
WEI3 is a flagship event of Lab I3, an institutional project aimed at implementing innovative educational approaches to impart the skills of the future, with entrepreneurship as the guiding principle.
